Temitope Adeshina , BACP

Temitope Adeshina is a psychotherapist credentialed in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She holds BACP, which denotes membership in the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, a recognised professional body for counselling and psychotherapy practitioners.

She specialises in supporting young people and individuals dealing with stress and anxiety, grief, school-based emotional challenges, life transitions, and identity exploration. Her practice is informed by experience working in mental health agencies, a grief agency, and school settings, where she has supported people from a range of backgrounds and life stages.

Temitope believes that close relationships, family systems, environments, and past experiences shape how people feel and relate to others. Her integrative approach draws on humanistic principles, cognitive behavioural techniques, and mindfulness-based practices to tailor sessions to each person’s needs - whether the goal is relief, clarity, growth, or change. She aims to cultivate a warm, compassionate space grounded in mutual respect where clients can explore their concerns and work toward meaningful goals.

Whether someone is seeking deeper self-understanding, healing, or simply a space to be heard and supported, Temitope is available to walk alongside them through their journey.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and close relationships shape current emotional patterns and interpersonal responses. It is useful for people working through attachment issues, abandonment concerns, and difficulties in relationships and family dynamics.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the individual’s own capacity for growth by providing empathetic, non-directive support that prioritises the client’s perspective. This approach can help with self-esteem, identity exploration, communication problems, and coping with life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and adjust unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, making it well suited for managing stress, anxiety, and day-to-day coping skills. Temitope draws on these approaches to tailor work to each person’s needs, and finding the best fit is treated as a collaborative process. She will work together with clients to explore which methods used by licensed professionals and therapists best align with their goals, needs, and preferences.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging provides flexibility and easier access for people with busy schedules, mobility limits, or geographic distance. These formats allow continuity of care during life transitions and make it possible to receive consistent support while adapting exercises and tools to an online setting.
