Background and approach
Sessions aim to give simple tools people can use day to day. Adeshalewa uses several approaches to suit different needs. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.
Client-Centred Therapy creates a respectful space to talk and be heard. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports people to act in line with their values even when feelings are hard. She has spent much of her career supporting people through bereavement, relationship difficulties, work stress and self-harm, and she has experience with obsessive thoughts, postpartum depression and issues linked to adoption or immigration.
She also addresses multicultural concerns and commitment worries. Clients who work with Adeshalewa can expect a collaborative process. She helps people set clear goals and tries to keep sessions focused and manageable.
The aim is steady progress and practical change that fits everyday life.

Sessions & fees
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, and then take actions that match their values. This can be useful for anxiety, depression and stress. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and changing behaviour step by step, which often helps with anxiety, compulsions and low mood. Client-Centred Therapy offers a warm, non-judgemental space where people can talk things through and feel heard, which supports processing emotional pain and trauma.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Adeshalewa will discuss goals and preferences and tailor techniques to what suits the client. The process is collaborative, with choices reviewed as progress is made so the plan can change if needed.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls are good for deeper conversation and seeing non-verbal cues. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer not to use voice or who want more frequent, brief contact. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, study or caring responsibilities while still using ACT, CBT or Client-Centred methods.
