About Fiwasade
Fiwasade Onifade is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with seven years of professional experience. She works with people dealing with trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, depression, stress and anxiety. Her practice also addresses relationship and family concerns, intimacy-related issues, compassion fatigue and feelings of guilt and shame.
She takes a direct, practical approach in sessions. Conversations focus on the here and now and on what feels most difficult. Fiwasade helps people name painful feelings and develop clearer ways to cope with them in daily life.
Her work often involves looking at how past events affect present behaviour. She supports people who are processing abandonment, adoption and foster care experiences, dissociation, or the aftermath of domestic violence and divorce. She also offers help with issues linked to immigration, HIV/AIDS, infidelity and isolation.
Fiwasade adapts the plan of work to each person. That might mean short-term practical goals or longer conversations about identity and belonging. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques, explained in straightforward terms during sessions.
Sessions are conducted in English and are organised through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session via the online therapy options button.
Her background includes seven years of practice supporting adults through major life changes, grief and trauma. She describes her registration as BACP which signals professional membership in the United Kingdom.
Practical approaches and online sessions
Fiwasade draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide her work and she explains each method in plain language. One common approach focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and coping patterns; this helps when depression, anxiety or persistent guilt are getting in the way of daily life. Another often-used style works with memories and their emotional impact, helping people understand how past trauma influences current behaviour and relationships.Choosing the best approach is collaborative. She will discuss goals, preferences and what feels manageable, then try methods that fit those priorities. If something does not help, she will adjust the plan together with the client rather than sticking to a fixed script.
The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when a full session is not needed. Some formats may be better for quieter conversations while others suit people who prefer not to use a camera. Registered or accredited professionals, including counsellors and therapists, often find that remote work helps people keep continuity of care alongside everyday commitments.
