About Folashade
Folashade Dada is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years of practice. She works with adults and young adults on issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship strain and low self-esteem. She also supports people facing career pressures, grief and parenting challenges.
She frames therapy as a practical process. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on small steps that make daily life feel more manageable. Conversation and straightforward exercises are used to build clearer thinking and steadier reactions to stress.
Folashade uses a mix of approaches rather than a single method. She draws on cognitive behavioural tools to address unhelpful patterns, acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values, and attachment-based thinking to look at relationship patterns. The blend is chosen to suit the person and the presenting difficulty.
She aims to balance calm listening with gentle challenge. That looks like checking how a problem shows up day to day, trying out different responses, and reviewing what helps. Work may include talking through difficult memories, practising new ways of relating, or developing coping routines for sleep and low mood.
Sessions are carried out in English and Folashade accepts people from outside the UK. Before a first session she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule an initial appointment. Fees vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How her approaches translate to online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice thoughts and values, then take small actions that match what matters most. It can help with ongoing anxiety or uncertainty by shifting attention toward meaningful activity. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, sleep difficulties and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy considers how early relationship patterns shape current connections and helps people recognise and try different ways of relating to others.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Folashade will work with each person to decide which combination of methods fits their goals and preferences. That decision is revisited as therapy progresses so techniques can change if something is not helping.
Please confirm current session options before booking because the biography does not list formats. Online sessions can make fitting counselling into a busy life easier by removing travel, allowing shorter check-ins during a break, or offering audio-only meetings if camera use is difficult. These practical benefits can help people keep therapy consistent while balancing work and family commitments.
