Foluso Orebiyi, BACP

Foluso Orebiyi is a counsellor with 13 years of experience helping people through emotional crises and life changes. She builds a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk about what matters. Her work focuses on practical shifts that make day-to-day life easier.

Foluso draws on person-centred principles to keep conversations centred on the client's experience. She also uses techniques from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people change unhelpful patterns. Sessions can include coaching methods to clarify goals and boost motivation.

Many people come to her for stress, anxiety, low mood, trauma and relationship concerns. She also works with intimacy-related issues, grief, addiction, sleep problems and parenting strain. Foluso offers support around identity issues such as attachment, abandonment and body image.

Her background includes work with trauma, adverse childhood experiences and relational wounds. She uses attachment-based ideas and elements drawn from Jungian work to help clients reconnect with disowned parts of themselves. This can include exploring past experiences that still affect present behaviour.

Foluso speaks English and Yoruba and works with international clients. She describes therapy as a joint process and helps people move from surviving to leading their own lives. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to availability.

Therapeutic approaches and online working

Foluso uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice painful thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, then focus on chosen values and meaningful action. This approach can be useful for anxiety, low mood and life transitions.

She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. This helps when relational wounds, abandonment or trust issues keep repeating in adult life. Foluso combines these with client-centred work to keep sessions led by the client's priorities and pace.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and together choose methods that make sense. This is a collaborative process and may change as work progresses.

Session formats are not specified in the supplied biography, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also help people take part when they live far from a practitioner. Registered or accredited professionals can use different ways of working online, so check available formats during the matching and scheduling steps.
