About Lanre

Lanre Adeyekun is a counsellor with a background in nursing and public health. She holds a Bachelor of Arts with Honours in Counselling and a Master of Science in Psychology of Mental Health & Wellbeing, and she is registered with the BACP. Lanre draws on her years in healthcare to offer calm, practical support for people facing hard moments.

She works with adults and young people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief and trauma. Lanre also helps with issues like low self-esteem, feelings of abandonment, attachment concerns and the emotional effects of chronic illness. Divorce and separation are included among the matters she supports people to work through.

Her style is warm and straightforward. Sessions focus on understanding what is happening now and finding small, manageable steps to feel steadier. She explains options clearly and tailors the approach to each person’s needs.

Lanre’s clinical background in nursing, maternal and child health, and health coaching informs a practical way of working. This can appeal to people who want a counsellor who listens carefully and links emotional coping with everyday routines.

To begin, a client completes a short matching questionnaire and then schedules sessions according to the therapist’s availability. The subscription used for sessions can be cancelled at any time, and fees vary with location and therapist availability.

Practical approaches for online counselling

Lanre draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address common problems. One approach she uses helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try alternative ways of thinking to ease anxiety and low mood. Another approach focuses on short-term, goal-oriented work that looks for small, practical changes a person can try between sessions to feel better.

Finding the right way of working is a collaborative process. Lanre will discuss options with each person and adjust the approach to match their goals, preferences and day-to-day realities. She aims to be clear about what each method involves and why a particular option might help.

If you are considering online therapy, please confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, as the profile does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy schedule, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that suits your day. Talk with the therapist when you book to decide what will work best for your situation and goals.
