Temitope Adeshina, BACP

Temitope Adeshina is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience and a BACP credential. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety and the challenges that come with life changes. Temitope places importance on hearing each person's story and meeting them where they are.

Her background includes work in mental health agencies, a grief service and school settings. These roles brought experience supporting people through grief, school-related emotions and identity questions. That range of settings informs a practical way of working with everyday problems.

Temitope uses an integrative style that draws on attachment-based ideas, client-centred listening and cognitive behavioural techniques. Sessions are shaped around what a person needs most in the moment, whether that is clearer thinking, emotional relief or practical steps forward. She aims to offer a calm, respectful space for people to talk things through.

She also pays attention to how relationships and family history affect present difficulties. This perspective is useful for people dealing with abandonment issues, attachment concerns or family-of-origin problems. Temitope works with matters such as caregiver stress, codependency and communication problems too.

People who contact her often want help with self-esteem, coping with change, parenting strain or ageing and geriatric concerns. Temitope can carry conversations about body image, guilt, shame and forgiveness in ways that try to make sense of everyday life. She accepts international clients and offers sessions in English and Yoruba.

If someone prefers a collaborative, person-focused approach that mixes talking therapies with practical tools, Temitope aims to tailor sessions to those goals.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-based work looks at how close relationships shape how someone thinks and feels. In sessions this often means talking about early connections and current relationship patterns to make them easier to understand and change.

Client-centred counselling focuses on listening without judgement and following the person's pace. It helps people who need a steady space to be heard while they sort through feelings and decisions.

Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking and behaving. It is often used for anxiety, stress and coping with life changes because it gives concrete tools to try between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss different methods and decide together with the client what feels most useful. This collaborative process takes into account the person's goals, day-to-day pressures and how they like to work.

Confirm the specific online session options before booking, as the biography does not list formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt these methods to remote sessions so people can continue their work from wherever suits them.
