About Folashade
Folashade Dada is a counsellor who offers support to adults and young adults facing anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties. She also helps with stress, low self-esteem and the strain of life changes. Folashade works with issues such as grief, intimacy concerns and sleep problems, and she includes parenting and career matters in her practice.
She holds BACP, which indicates registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Folashade draws on a mix of approaches to suit each person, including acceptance and commitment work, cognitive behavioural ideas and emotion-focused methods.
Background and approach
Her way of working is adaptable rather than one-size-fits-all. Sessions aim to be warm and straightforward. Folashade balances listening with gentle challenge so people can find practical steps forward.
She encourages clients to notice strengths they already have while building new coping skills. Her additional focus areas include attachment concerns, body image, caregiving stress, chronic illness and issues around adoption and abandonment. She also supports people dealing with communication problems, commitment worries and control issues.
Folashade works from the United Kingdom and offers services in English. International clients are accepted. To begin, clients use the site Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule sessions based on availability.

How Folashade works online
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and how someone responds to different ways of working, and then agree a plan that feels right. That process is collaborative and may shift over time as needs change.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel and allowing sessions during breaks or from different locations. It can also support shorter check-ins when needed, or let someone join without being on camera if that helps them engage more comfortably. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often adapt session length and pacing to match daily routines and commitments.
