About Olufunmilayo

Olufunmilayo Hinmikaiye is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people manage stress, anxiety and depression. She supports those facing relationship strain, self-esteem struggles and life changes. Her approach puts the client at the centre of the conversation and values each person's strengths.

She practises Client-Centred Therapy, which means sessions focus on listening, understanding and reflecting what matters to the person. Sessions aim to help people find their own solutions rather than prescribing fixes.

Background and approach

This style suits people who want a supportive space to talk things through and build confidence. With five years of professional experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), she has worked with issues such as trauma and abuse, intimacy-related concerns, parenting stress and compassion fatigue.

Additional focus areas include chronic pain and illness, communication problems, guilt and shame, and social anxiety. Practical topics like eating, sleeping and anger are also covered in sessions, along with deeper questions about life purpose and isolation. Olufunmilayo aims to help clients notice small steps they can try between meetings to make day-to-day life feel more manageable.

She offers counselling in English and accepts international clients. People usually begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and booking a session, after which they can explore what pace and style suit them best.

How Client-Centred Therapy works online

Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of therapy and relies on listening and empathy. In practice this means the counsellor reflects what the person says, checks understanding and helps them explore their own solutions. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, relationship worries and building self-esteem.

That same approach adapts well to talking by phone or video and to written formats like live chat or messaging. The therapist aims to tune into tone and content whether conversations happen face to face on screen or through short text check-ins. The focus remains on the client's goals and what they find most helpful.

Working together to find the right approach is part of the process. Olufunmilayo will discuss preferences and goals with each person and adjust the style and pace accordingly. The decision about which format to use is made collaboratively so it fits the client's daily life.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls are helpful for a fuller conversational feel, phone sessions can use less bandwidth and suit quick check-ins, and live chat or messaging works well for short reflections or when typing is easier. These options make it simpler to fit counselling into a busy routine while still focusing on meaningful change.
