About Abolanle
Abolanle (Bola) Aloluwaloba is a counsellor who focuses on helping people who feel stuck, overwhelmed or unsure where to begin. She listens without judgement and helps clients notice patterns in thinking, feelings and behaviour. Sessions aim for clear, practical steps so people feel steadier and more able to face daily pressures.
Bola offers a calm space to talk through common concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, stress and relationship strain. She also supports people coping with changes such as divorce or job loss, and those dealing with addiction, sleeping or eating difficulties.
Background and approach
Parenting worries, ADHD-related challenges and work stress are also within her scope. Her approach is collaborative and client-centred. She draws on Jungian ideas about the less conscious parts of the mind, along with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy techniques when helpful.
That means sessions can include exploring personal stories, noticing unhelpful thought patterns and practising new ways of responding. Bola highlights the importance of the client's commitment to the process. Therapy can bring up uncomfortable material at times, and she works alongside people as they take careful steps through that work.
The aim is for clients to build clearer self-awareness and practical coping skills. She holds NCPS credentials and has five years' experience working with people in the United Kingdom. Sessions are offered in English and Yoruba and can be adapted to individual needs and preferences.

Online support
Approaches online and what they offer
Jungian Therapy looks at parts of the self that operate outside everyday awareness and helps people bring those patterns into view. This can help when someone feels stuck, empty or repeatedly reacts in the same ways without understanding why.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting trapped by them, and on choosing actions that match your values. It is often used for anxiety, stress and low mood and helps people take practical steps even when emotions are difficult.
Attachment-Based Therapy concentrates on how early and current relationships shape feelings about closeness and trust. It can be useful for intimacy-related issues, attachment concerns and family of origin matters.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences and suggest ways of working that fit. This is a collaborative process and plans can change as you learn what helps most.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth conversations and reading non-verbal cues, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, journalling between sessions or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options give flexibility to fit therapy around work, family and daily life.
