About Olubunmi
Counsellor and BACP member Olubunmi Babajide has five years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns and depression, and also lists family issues, grief, eating difficulties, anger and self-esteem as areas she helps people with.
Olubunmi works with people to create an open setting where they can talk about thoughts and feelings. Sessions aim to reduce judgement and give space to say what is on your mind. She describes the step of asking for help as one that takes courage, and she supports clients through that process.
In sessions she listens to current struggles and helps people break them into manageable steps. Conversations cover practical coping strategies and ways to understand patterns that keep problems going. She helps people work through relationship difficulties and emotional responses such as anger or low mood.
Olubunmi also works with grief and eating-related concerns, looking at how feelings and behaviours connect. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide work, matching methods to what each person needs. The focus is on clear, practical steps rather than jargon.
People who contact her can expect straightforward conversation about what brings them to therapy and what might help next. She encourages small changes and ongoing review so progress can be noticed and adjusted where needed.
How therapeutic approaches guide online counselling
Olubunmi uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to structure her work. One common method focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them through everyday experiments; this helps when anxiety or low mood centre on recurring negative thinking. Another approach looks at practical coping strategies and routine changes to reduce stress and manage strong emotions like anger. Choosing the right method is part of the work. She discusses options with each person and decides together which approaches fit the issues, goals and preferences being brought to sessions. This collaborative process means methods can be adjusted as things change. For practical arrangements, check the session formats with her before booking since the biography does not list specific formats. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week and can reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins when needed, or work around time at home or during a break at work, helping people keep therapy as part of everyday life.Areas of expertise
