Fiwasade Onifade , BACP

Fiwasade Onifade is a United Kingdom based therapist with BACP accreditation and seven years of professional experience. BACP refers to the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, a recognized body for counselling standards in the UK, and Fiwasade brings that foundation to work with people facing trauma, abuse, grief, depression, low self-esteem, and major life changes.

She works with a broad range of concerns, including stress and anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, intimacy-related issues, and compassion fatigue. Additional focus areas include abandonment, adoption and foster care matters, commitment and control issues, dissociation, domestic violence, separation and divorce, and feelings of guilt or shame. Her practice also supports people coping with immigration challenges, HIV/AIDS related concerns, infidelity, isolation, and recovery after natural or human-caused disasters.

Fiwasade emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in collaborative care. She adapts conversations and treatment plans to each person’s circumstances, aiming to empower clients to make meaningful changes. Seeking help is a courageous step, and Fiwasade offers steady support and practical strategies to help clients move toward greater wellbeing and resilience.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Support

Fiwasade uses evidence-based techniques tailored to address trauma and its effects, offering structured approaches that help people process distressing events and reduce symptoms that interfere with daily life. These methods focus on building safety, understanding reactions, and gradually working through traumatic memories in ways that feel manageable.

She also applies targeted interventions for grief and loss that validate the experience of mourning while helping clients find ways to adapt and reconnect with meaningful aspects of life. For anxiety, stress, and depressive symptoms she draws on skills-oriented strategies that teach practical tools for emotional regulation, coping, and improving self-esteem.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Fiwasade works collaboratively with each client to identify the best fit based on needs, goals, and personal preferences. She partners with clients to adjust techniques as progress unfolds so care remains relevant and useful.

Online therapy offers flexible access to licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity of care from different locations, and choose the communication format that feels most comfortable for each person.
