About Ronke

Ronke Adeyemi is a counsellor with a Master of Arts in Counselling and Psychotherapy and a post-qualification diploma in Couple’s Counselling. She has eight years of practice in the United Kingdom, including work in hospices, domestic abuse charities, and private practice. She also carries BACP registration and works in English and Yoruba.

She helps people with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and parenting concerns. She also provides support around career changes, coping with life transitions, compassion fatigue and ADHD-related challenges. Additional areas include adoption and foster care, blended family issues, body image, and communication or commitment problems.

Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Attachment-Based Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) and client-centred methods. In sessions she uses practical conversation, reflective listening and goal-focused exercises to help people identify barriers and try different ways of responding. She describes her work as respectful and collaborative.

Ronke has experience conducting ADI-R assessments and offering therapeutic counselling to neurodivergent people alongside her other roles. That practical background informs how she supports people struggling with identity, shame, guilt or unresolved past hurts.

Clients can expect a clear, straightforward way of working. She asks questions, helps clarify what matters most, and offers strategies to manage feelings and improve communication. The aim is to support greater confidence and clearer choices in everyday life.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then choose actions that matter to them. It can help with anxiety, stress and decisions around relationships or parenting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early patterns of relating affect current relationships and intimacy. It can be useful when communication or trust are strained.

Choosing the right approach happens together. The therapist will listen to what matters most and suggest ways of working based on the client’s goals and preferences. Many people try one method and adapt it over time, and the counsellor will check in and change direction if needed.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because the biography does not list formats. Confirm available options during the matching process. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around school runs, work breaks or caregiving duties, and certain approaches lend themselves to short practical tasks between meetings. Registered or accredited professionals can use online work to maintain continuity when life is busy, while tailoring session pace and tools to everyday routines.
