About Olubunmi

Olubunmi Jones is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years of practice. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, sleep problems and depression. She also supports those dealing with parenting strain, self-esteem issues, compassion fatigue and life changes.

Jones uses a relational way of working that aims to help clients notice and name difficult feelings. Sessions focus on building an understanding of how past relationships shape current reactions. She helps people look at patterns such as attachment issues, abandonment worries and family of origin problems.

Her approach draws on client-centred listening and mindfulness techniques to slow intense moments and increase awareness. Narrative ideas are used to map stories people tell about themselves and to find different ways of making sense of painful events. Existential themes are considered when people question meaning, life direction or commitments.

Group work and individual sessions are mentioned in the original biography, and the work described is relational and integrative. Practical aims include better sleep, reduced anxiety in daily situations, and clearer ways of coping with grief and chronic health concerns.

She describes her work as helping people reconnect with their inner resources after difficult events. To start with her process, readers should follow the site booking flow to view current options and choose a first session.

Olubunmi uses familiar therapy ideas rather than technical jargon, and communication is in English.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Olubunmi commonly uses attachment-based ideas and client-centred work in her sessions. Attachment-based work looks at relationship patterns from early life and how they affect current reactions; it can help when social anxiety or fears about abandonment make interactions hard. Client-centred work focuses on careful listening and reflecting what a person says, to help them find their own solutions and build clearer self-understanding.

She also draws on mindfulness to slow down racing thoughts and bring attention back to the present. These methods can be used together so practical skills from mindfulness sit alongside conversations about relationship patterns and meaning. Choosing the right mix is collaborative - the therapist and client decide together which approaches fit the clients goals and preferences.

The booking flow on this site asks a few questions to match people to therapists and to schedule a first session. The biography does not list specific session formats here, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, for example shorter check-ins during a lunch break, or avoiding travel time on workdays. It can also help when quieter surroundings or a simpler connection make it easier to speak and reflect.
