About Ayotunde
Ayotunde Popoola is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years of experience. She works with adults who feel stuck after a big change or who are unsure what comes next. People often come to her with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, anger, career concerns or difficulty coping with life changes.
Ayotunde uses a person-centred approach that focuses on what matters to the individual. She combines that with practical methods from cognitive behavioural and solution-focused therapies. This mix helps people talk through painful memories, manage distressing thoughts and set small, achievable goals.
In sessions she pays close attention to how attachment and past relationships affect present choices. Trauma-focused methods are used when people have been harmed or abused. Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas are also part of her work when emotions and relationship patterns are central to the concern.
Her style is straightforward and goal-oriented. Sessions typically involve discussing recent difficulties, noticing recurring patterns, and trying practical strategies between meetings. She also supports people dealing with narrower issues such as abandonment, adoption and foster care experiences, body image, codependency and caregiver stress.
Ayotunde conducts work in English. Costs vary by location and are set through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session scheduled via the See online therapy options button.
How her approaches translate to online work
Ayotunde uses person-centred (client-centred) counselling alongside cognitive behavioural therapy and trauma-focused methods. Client-centred work focuses on listening and reflecting what matters most to the person, helping them clarify values and next steps. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. Trauma-focused therapy concentrates on helping people process past harm and reduce its impact on current life choices.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Ayotunde will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what feels useful, and then agree a plan together. That collaborative process helps decide which methods to try and how quickly to shift focus as needs change.
The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also let a person use telephone or lower-bandwidth options if that suits their situation better. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often adapt the length and focus of sessions to match practical life constraints and immediate goals.
