About Tolulope
Tolulope Elizabeth Fakunle is a HCPC-registered counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with eight years of professional experience. She works with people who face stress, anxiety, depression and relationship and family concerns. Tolulope also supports those dealing with trauma, addictions, grief and challenges around intimacy and self-esteem.
Her sessions focus on what clients are living with now and on practical steps they can try between meetings. She treats conversations as collaborative and listens for patterns that cause repeated stress. Tolulope uses familiar therapeutic methods to help people name feelings and change unhelpful reactions.
She draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at the emotions that drive relationship and attachment patterns. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help with unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. These approaches are used to help with sleeping and eating problems, social anxiety, overwhelm and career-related stress.
Tolulope can work with body image concerns, caregiver stress, communication breakdowns, guilt and shame, and the strain of divorce or separation. She also supports people facing life transitions such as pregnancy and childbirth, grieving, or rethinking life purpose.
Sessions are offered in English and Yoruba. Her style is straightforward and practical, with an emphasis on identifying small, useful changes clients can try between sessions.
How her therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Tolulope commonly uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to focus on the emotions that shape relationship and attachment patterns. EFT helps people name hard-to-identify feelings and notice how those feelings affect their interactions with others. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is used to help clients notice unhelpful thoughts and to practise small, values-based actions in daily life. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy addresses specific thoughts and behaviours that maintain anxiety, low mood or problematic routines.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Tolulope will discuss which methods fit a client’s situation and goals, and adapt her way of working as those needs become clearer. Clients and the therapist make decisions together about what to try and when to review progress.
The biography does not specify session formats, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited and remove the need to travel. Registered or accredited professionals often use remote sessions to keep contact regular and to maintain momentum between meetings.
