About Grace
Grace Ovba-Adebiyi is a counsellor who brings seven years of practice to people feeling overwhelmed by life’s pressures. She works in the United Kingdom and offers a calm, respectful space for someone to talk through what’s on their mind. Grace treats each person as the expert in their own life and focuses on practical steps forward rather than labels.
Her sessions mix talking and practical exercises. She uses techniques drawn from cognitive behavioural approaches to spot unhelpful thinking.
Background and approach
She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people make room for difficult feelings while taking actions that matter to them. Grace aims to be warm and straightforward in session. She listens without judgement and will gently challenge patterns that keep someone stuck.
Her style is collaborative - she and the person in therapy decide together what to try next. People come to her for many concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and eating issues. She also supports people dealing with sleep problems, relationship and intimacy matters, and career-related stress.
Additional focus areas include body image, guilt and shame, loneliness and panic symptoms. Grace offers sessions online in English. She works with mood difficulties such as bipolar symptoms and with practical life changes.
Her approach is to build on strengths and small steps, helping people find clearer ways to cope and move forward.

Online support
Choosing the best approach is part of the work together. Grace talks with each person about their goals and what feels most helpful. She adapts methods to match needs and checks in regularly to see what’s working and what could change.
Online therapy makes these approaches easier to access. Video calls let people have a fuller conversation and use screen-based worksheets. Phone sessions suit someone who needs lower bandwidth or a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging can be useful for steady check-ins, brief coaching-style support and when typing feels easier than speaking. These options aim to fit therapy around real life and different routines.
