About Folashade
Folashade Dada is a counsellor with four years' experience supporting adults and young adults facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship concerns. She uses a warm, respectful approach to help people find what works for them. Folashade encourages clients to notice their strengths and try new ways of coping.
Folashade combines emotionally-focused ideas with practical methods to make therapy feel useful. Sessions focus on understanding emotions, improving communication and building everyday strategies.
Background and approach
She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people manage difficult thoughts and take steps aligned with their values. Clients can expect a calm, non-judgemental space to talk through challenges. Folashade balances listening with gentle challenge to help people move forward.
She often works with concerns such as low self-esteem, grief, sleep difficulties, career worries and the stress of life changes. Her practice also addresses areas like attachment and intimacy issues, parenting strains, complex family dynamics and long-term health challenges such as chronic pain or caregiving stress. These topics are handled with practical ideas and emotional focus rather than heavy theory.
Sessions are offered in English and are suitable for international clients. Folashade explains methods clearly and helps people try small, achievable steps between meetings. The aim is steady progress and skills people can use beyond therapy.

Online support
Emotion-focused and practical approaches for online therapy
The online work draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people notice and make sense of core feelings. EFT-style work often focuses on emotional patterns that keep people stuck and helps them try new ways of responding in relationships and daily life.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is used alongside emotion-focused ideas to encourage valued action. ACT helps people name what matters to them, accept difficult thoughts without being led by them, and take small steps that match their values.
Attachment-Based Therapy informs the way Folashade looks at closeness and trust in relationships. She uses attachment ideas to help people understand how early patterns affect current reactions and to practise clearer communication and connection.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and decide together which methods to try. That collaborative process means the plan can change as needs shift.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation, phone can fit a shorter check-in, and messaging works well for ongoing support between meetings. These options make therapy easier to fit around work, family life and travel while keeping the focus on useful, practical change.
