About Folashade
Folashade Dada is a BACP counsellor who supports adults and young adults facing anxiety, depression and relationship worries. She works with people dealing with low self-esteem, academic stress, race-related concerns and trauma. Folashade aims to create a warm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk through difficult feelings and begin to move forward.
She believes therapy is a process of self-discovery. Folashade uses an integrative approach and adapts methods to the needs of each person. Sessions combine empathy with gentle challenge to help people notice what works for them and try new ways of coping.
Her work covers many everyday problems, including sleeping difficulties, parenting strain, career stress, grief and coping with life changes. She also supports people dealing with attachment issues, body image concerns and long-term health challenges such as chronic illness and cancer related stress.
Folashade blends practical techniques from cognitive behavioural methods with acceptance-based ideas and attachment-focused conversations. She also uses emotionally-focused and client-centred listening to build understanding and strengthen relationships where intimacy or communication is strained.
With four years of experience, Folashade encourages small steps that fit into busy lives. She helps people test new habits, practise different responses and build confidence gradually. Her approach is collaborative and grounded in day-to-day realities, including coping after natural or human-caused disaster events.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on values-based action. It supports coping with anxiety, low mood and life changes by encouraging small, meaningful steps. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early bonds shape current reactions; it can help when intimacy or trust is difficult. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to spot and change thinking and behaviour patterns linked to anxiety, sleep problems and depression.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Folashade will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. Together they will try approaches, review what helps, and adjust the plan as needed.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by removing travel time, allowing a shorter check-in during a work break, or avoiding the need to be on camera for every appointment. Registered or accredited professionals including therapists can use online work to offer continuity of care when in-person meetings are difficult to arrange.
