Abolanle (Bola) Aloluwaloba , NCPS

Abolanle (Bola) Aloluwaloba is a qualified counsellor (NCPS - a professional counselling credential) who offers a calm, nonjudgemental space where people can examine the less conscious parts of their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. She works with individuals facing a range of issues, including bereavement and loss, anxiety and fear, life changes such as divorce or redundancy, relationship difficulties, past or present abuse - whether sexual, physical, mental, or financial - low confidence and self-esteem, addictions, depression, and eating disorders.

Her role is to help clients gain clarity and perspective so they can build healthier relationships with themselves and others and better manage both internal and external challenges. Over time clients develop insights and learn to rely on their own strengths and resources, which supports meaningful change and improved wellbeing. She practises in a client-centred, collaborative way and adapts therapeutic methods to suit each person’s needs, while emphasising the importance of the client’s commitment to the therapeutic work.

She acknowledges that therapy can sometimes feel challenging as it touches on difficult or avoided parts of experience, but she believes that taking that risk within the therapeutic space often leads to deeper self-understanding and a greater sense of meaning in life.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Abolanle (Bola) Aloluwaloba draws on client-centered therapy to create an accepting therapeutic atmosphere in which clients lead the pace and focus of the work; this approach supports people who want to explore self-worth, relationships, and life decisions while feeling heard and respected. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is used to help clients clarify their values and develop flexible strategies for living with difficult thoughts and feelings - it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and navigating life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy is another focus that looks at how early relationships shape current patterns - it can be helpful for issues such as abandonment, attachment concerns, and recurring relationship difficulties.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and she collaborates with each client to determine what fits best based on needs, goals, and personal preference. That collaborative process allows adjustments over time as therapy progresses and priorities shift.

Online sessions are offered by licensed professionals in formats that include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options provide flexibility for scheduling, make therapy more accessible for people with busy lives or mobility constraints, and allow clients to continue work from home or other comfortable settings while maintaining a consistent therapeutic relationship with their therapist.
