About Adeshalewa
Adeshalewa Kolawole is a counsellor in the United Kingdom with ten years of experience and a BACP credential. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, low mood and depression. She also supports those affected by trauma and abuse and helps with self-esteem and family-related concerns.
Her approach is practical and person-focused. She listens first, then helps clients see what triggers difficult feelings. Sessions often involve learning new ways to cope and testing small changes in everyday life.
Background and approach
Adeshalewa draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centred methods. She adapts these to the person in front of her rather than using a fixed formula. That means she and the client agree a strategy that fits personal goals and circumstances.
She has worked with people dealing with obsessive thoughts and compulsions, postpartum depression, adoption and foster care issues, immigration and multicultural concerns, commitment problems, self-harm and the challenges many young adults face. She also has experience supporting people after bereavement and relationship difficulties. Her manner is described as empathic and non-judgemental, with a focus on helping people notice their strengths.
The aim is to give practical tools that help manage emotions and change unhelpful patterns. To begin, prospective clients use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time and fees vary by location and therapist availability.

How Adeshalewa works online
Deciding which approach to use is part of the work together. The therapist discusses goals and preferences and adjusts methods as progress is made. That collaborative process helps shape whether sessions lean more towards ACT, CBT or a client-centred style depending on what the person needs.
The practical benefit of online therapy is that it can fit more easily into a busy life, making regular sessions simpler to attend and allowing shorter check-ins when useful. If you prefer specific session types, please confirm the current options before booking. The focus is on making therapy workable alongside everyday commitments rather than promising a particular format.
