About Olubunmi

Olubunmi Jones is a counsellor with four years' experience who works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief and depression. She is based in the United Kingdom and holds BACP registration, which is listed as her credential. Olubunmi aims to help clients reconnect with their own resources so they can move forward from difficult life moments.

She sees individuals who are coping with trauma and abuse, sleeping problems, low self-esteem and major life changes. She also helps people experiencing compassion fatigue and those dealing with parenting challenges. Additional areas she focuses on include abandonment, body image, chronic pain and illness, and ageing and geriatric issues.

Her practice takes a relational approach that centres the therapeutic relationship. Sessions are grounded in client-centred work, with attention to attachment patterns and meaning-making around life events. She draws on existential ideas to help people reflect on values and choices.

Olubunmi uses mindfulness skills and narrative techniques to help people notice thoughts and tell their stories in new ways. She also integrates ideas from Imago relationship work when relationship patterns are part of the concern. This mix aims to offer practical steps alongside deeper reflection.

Her style is warm and attentive, prioritising clear, simple conversation. People who want a steady, thoughtful counsellor for emotional difficulties and life transitions may find this approach helpful. To begin, follow the platform's process to match and book a session.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions

Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions can help people notice attachment habits, talk through relationship fears and practise new ways of relating. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's perspective and pace, offering a non-directive space where the counsellor listens and reflects to support self-understanding and choice.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Olubunmi will discuss goals and preferences with each person and together decide which combination of methods will feel most useful. That collaborative process helps shape what happens week to week rather than imposing a single method up front.

Practically, online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time or allowing appointments during a work break. Because session formats are not specified in the biography, confirm current session options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals working online can still use grounding exercises, narrative reflection and mindfulness practices effectively across remote sessions, helping people manage symptoms and make steady progress.
