About Lanre
Lanre Adeyekun is a counsellor and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has three years' clinical experience and works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem and depression.
She draws on a mix of evidence-based therapeutic techniques. Lanre uses approaches such as cognitive behavioural work, brief solution-focused methods and psychodynamic ideas to help people understand patterns and make small changes. Her background includes nursing and midwifery and postgraduate study in maternal and child health, which inform a practical view of wellbeing.
Sessions are straightforward and conversational. She helps people talk through what is happening, notice unhelpful patterns and practise different ways of coping. She also supports exploration of painful past events and how these can affect feelings now.
Lanre works with additional concerns such as attachment and abandonment issues, codependency, dissociation, chronic illness and pain, and problems with communication and control. She also addresses complex emotional responses like guilt, shame and impulsivity.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online counselling
Many of the approaches Lanre works with are practical and can be adapted to remote sessions. Cognitive behavioural work focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small changes in behaviour; it suits stress, anxiety and low mood. Brief solution-focused work looks at what is already working and builds on small, achievable steps to change day-to-day routines. Psychodynamic ideas help people explore how past relationships and experiences shape current feelings and patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lanre will discuss different methods with clients and decide together what fits best. That discussion covers goals, current problems and preferences so the approach can be adjusted over time.
Confirm the exact session formats offered before booking. The practice advises checking options during the matching stage. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into busy lives, for example by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins or using video or phone to suit someone’s needs. Registered or accredited professionals, including counsellors, use these methods to keep sessions focused and practical while supporting everyday commitments.
