About Folashade
Folashade Dada is a counsellor with a BACP registration who supports adults and young adults facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship concerns. She works with people dealing with low self-esteem, grief, sleep problems and life transitions. Her style is warm and direct, aiming to help clients notice strengths and build practical coping skills.
She believes therapy is a process of discovery. Folashade trusts that people often carry answers already and that gentle guidance can help those answers surface.
Background and approach
Sessions are conversational and focused on helping clients identify small, manageable steps forward. Folashade uses a mix of approaches tailored to each client. She draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to shift unhelpful thinking and on acceptance-based ideas to help people live with difficult feelings.
Attachment-informed work and emotionally-focused ideas guide sessions about relationships and intimacy. Her practice emphasises clear goals and practical tools. That can mean setting behavioural experiments, practising new communication skills, or learning strategies to sleep better.
She balances empathy with gentle challenge to encourage change without pressure. Folashade has four years of experience working in therapeutic settings across the United Kingdom. She offers sessions in English and is open to speaking with clients who live outside the UK.
People who want to start can complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange an initial session through the site.

Online support
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Folashade will work collaboratively to find what fits each person's needs, goals and preferences. Together they will try methods, review what helps, and adjust the focus as therapy progresses.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation from wherever someone is based. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat and messaging suit short check-ins, reflective writing or when people prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while working with experienced registered professionals.
