About Yetunde(Yetty)
Counsellor and member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with four years' experience, Yetunde (Yetty) Fajembola helps people with stress, anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties. She also supports people facing issues such as addiction, grief, self-esteem, trauma and coping with life changes. Sessions are offered in English and she works from the United Kingdom.
Yetty uses a person-centred style. That means she listens without judgement and aims to help people say what they find hard to say. She also draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to look at patterns of thought and behaviour that keep problems going. Solution-focused ideas are used to identify small, practical steps forward.
In a session she encourages clear talk about feelings and thoughts. Practical tools for managing mood and anxiety are discussed where helpful. The focus is on what a person wants to change and on concrete ways to get there rather than long theoretical discussion.
She has worked with people who present with OCD, interpersonal difficulties, confidence problems and life transitions. Other areas she covers include ADHD, intimacy and family of origin issues, caregiver stress, body image and forgiveness. The list reflects the areas she commonly addresses in practice.
Sessions can be by video or telephone. Weekend appointments are possible on request and subject to availability. To start, the service uses a subscription that can be cancelled at any time and clients complete a short matching questionnaire before arranging a first session.
How her approaches work in online counselling
Yetty uses person-centred methods that focus on listening and helping people say what they find difficult. This approach is about the conversation itself and can help with low mood, anxiety and relationship worries.She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical techniques for managing anxiety, depression and unwanted behaviours. Solution-focused therapy is applied to set small, achievable goals and identify steps that move a person forward.
Choosing which approach to use is part of the first sessions. The therapist works together with the client to decide what fits best, based on the person's needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative process may mean using elements from different methods over time.
Practical benefits of working online include being able to have sessions from wherever it is easier to fit them in and the option of shorter check-ins when necessary. She offers video and telephone sessions, and weekend appointments can be arranged on request. If you need a different format, confirm the session options before booking so they match your day-to-day life.
