About Fiwasade
Fiwasade Onifade works with people facing trauma and abuse, grief and loss, low self-esteem, depression, anxiety and stress. She supports those coping with life changes, relationship and intimacy issues, compassion fatigue and a wide range of related concerns. Fiwasade is based in the United Kingdom and communicates in English.
She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Fiwasade takes a warm and respectful approach. She listens carefully and adapts conversations to each person's needs.
Background and approach
Sessions are tailored so people can talk at their own pace and focus on what matters most to them. The aim is to help people build coping strategies and clearer ways of managing day-to-day problems. Over seven years of work have given her experience with complex issues such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, dissociation, domestic violence, and immigration-related stress.
She also helps with forgiveness, guilt, shame, and recovery after infidelity or divorce. That range means she is used to supporting people through both sudden crises and long-standing patterns. Fiwasade combines practical discussion with compassionate support.
She will work with each person to set realistic goals and test small changes between sessions. Progress is reviewed regularly so the plan stays relevant and useful. If someone prefers online help, Fiwasade offers a range of session formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging.
Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a session at a mutually suitable time.

Practical therapy approaches and online sessions
Fiwasade uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, practical steps. One approach is trauma-informed work which helps people understand how past harm affects thoughts, feelings and relationships, and supports rebuilding safety and coping skills. Another approach emphasises grief and loss care, helping people make sense of what they have lost and find ways to carry on with day-to-day life.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Fiwasade works collaboratively to identify goals and tries methods that match those goals and the person's preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan so the work stays useful and relevant.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual connection helps, while phone sessions can fit into a short break or require less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging suit quick check-ins, ongoing support, or times when writing feels easier than speaking. These options help people fit therapy around work, family and other commitments.
