About Temitope
Temitope Adeshina is a BACP-registered psychotherapist practising in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She focuses on helping young adults and individuals manage stress, anxiety, self-esteem issues, parenting pressures, family difficulties and life changes. Sessions are offered in English and Yoruba, and she also accepts international clients.
She has worked in a range of settings, including mental health agencies, a grief agency and schools. Those roles gave her practical experience with grief, school-related emotions, transitions and identity questions. Her background means she is used to short-term practical work as well as longer conversations about life patterns.
Her approach mixes attachment-based ideas, client-centred listening and cognitive behavioural techniques. That combination is used to look at how close relationships and past experiences affect present feelings and behaviour. She aims to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try new ways of coping.
Sessions typically start by clarifying what a person wants to change or understand. From there she offers straightforward tools for managing anxiety and stress, and weaves in reflective discussion about family history and relationships when that helps. Sessions can include practical exercises, thought-work from CBT and space to talk through difficult feelings.
Temitope works with common pressures facing early adults - leaving home, study or work stress, relationship uncertainty and feeling behind. She invites practical goal-setting alongside exploring deeper emotional patterns. To begin she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then book an initial session.
How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions
Attachment-based work looks at how early and close relationships affect current feelings and reactions. In sessions this often means mapping important relationships and noticing patterns that keep causing hurt or avoidance; it can be useful for issues like abandonment, attachment difficulties and relationship anxiety.Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what the person says without directing them. This approach gives space to name feelings, build clarity and decide practical next steps, which suits people wrestling with identity, low self-esteem or life transitions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what feels helpful. Together they decide whether to use more practical CBT techniques, reflective attachment work or a mix of approaches over time.
Confirm the exact online session options before booking as the biography does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around study, work and busy schedules, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people choose sessions that suit their energy level - for example, a focused skills session or a longer reflective conversation.
