Tolulope Elizabeth Fakunle , HCPC

Tolulope Elizabeth Fakunle is a United Kingdom-based therapist with eight years of professional experience and HCPC registration - HCPC stands for the Health and Care Professions Council, a UK credential. She works with people confronting a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family conflicts, intimacy-related issues, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting challenges, and career or life transitions. Tolulope also supports clients facing attachment and body image concerns, caregiver stress, communication problems, separation and divorce, and the emotional impacts of pregnancy and childbirth.

Her practice emphasizes the client's own strengths and knowledge; she approaches therapy from the belief that each person is the expert of their story and that those strengths can be mobilized to navigate challenges. Tolulope uses a blend of evidence-informed methods to tailor support to individual circumstances, drawing on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy.

Known for a supportive and empowering style, she aims to help clients take the courageous first steps toward a more fulfilling and balanced life. Therapy is offered in English and Yoruba to accommodate different language preferences.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Tolulope commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy in her online practice. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values, develop psychological flexibility, and take meaningful action even when difficult emotions arise - it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve coping - it is often applied for anxiety, depression, and patterns that interfere with daily functioning. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes active listening, empathy, and collaboration, giving space for a person to explore their experience at their own pace and build self-understanding and resilience.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Tolulope works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts strategies over time as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and fit therapy into varied schedules. These options make it easier to access regular support without travel, allow for immediate check-ins when needed, and enable people to choose the format that feels most comfortable for them while working with licensed professionals.
