About Ronke

Ronke Adeyemi is a counsellor with a Master of Arts in Counselling and Psychotherapy and the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy registration. She brings eight years of experience in hospices, domestic abuse charities and private practice. Ronke offers a calm, empathetic presence for people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief and loss.

Her approach blends well-established methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy with Attachment-Based and Emotionally-Focused ideas. She adapts techniques to the person in front of her rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan. Sessions often focus on building clearer communication, practical coping strategies and ways to manage unhelpful thinking.

Ronke has worked with people affected by trauma and abuse and those navigating separation and bereavement. She also supports people dealing with identity, cultural issues, shame, low self-esteem and compassion fatigue. Her background includes work with neurodivergent clients and experience as an ADI-R assessor, which informs her sensitive, measured way of listening.

She aims to create an atmosphere of respect and openness where practical change can happen. Conversations tend to be straightforward and goal-focused, while still leaving space for harder emotions. Ronke encourages self-compassion and small, steady steps towards personal goals.

People can expect collaboration about goals and methods. The focus is on what the individual wants to change and achievable ways to get there, whether that means improving relationships, easing anxiety, or managing life transitions.

How Ronke’s approaches translate to online counselling

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on identifying what matters to the person and taking small committed steps towards those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help with anxiety, depression and stress by clarifying goals and promoting behavioural change. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how they affect current connections, helping people improve communication and emotional regulation in close relationships. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises a non-judgemental, empathetic relationship where the person leads the pace of change and the counsellor offers understanding and acceptance.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss which methods fit the person's needs and preferences, and they will adjust the plan together as therapy progresses. This makes sure the work stays relevant and manageable.

Online therapy can make fitting sessions into a busy life easier, for example by reducing travel time and allowing sessions around work or caregiving duties. If you are considering remote sessions, confirm the current session formats before booking so you know what is offered. Many people find that talking from a familiar setting helps them focus, while others prefer shorter check-ins or audio-only options when that suits their day.
