About Funmilayo

Funmilayo Oni works with issues such as low self-esteem, relationship difficulties and life changes using an integrative approach with a person-centred foundation. She is a member of the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP) and has 10 years of experience in the field.

Funmilayo draws on her background in counselling and personal performance coaching to help people clarify what matters to them. Sessions focus on clear, practical steps rather than jargon. She listens to the person in front of her and helps them identify small changes that make daily life easier.

Her work covers common concerns such as anxiety, stress, depression and anger. She also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, parenting pressures, workplace issues and career questions. Relationship topics include communication problems, infidelity and marriage-related conflict.

Funmilayo uses Client-Centred Therapy as a base, and brings in techniques from Solution-Focused Therapy and the Gottman Method when they suit the client. That means sessions can move between exploring feelings, setting short-term goals and practising new ways of interacting with others.

People who come to her can expect straightforward conversation and goal-focused plans. She aims to help clients become more independent and confident in handling life’s challenges. Practical coaching tools are available alongside counselling when a client wants them.

How her therapeutic approaches work for online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy places the client at the centre of the conversation and focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the person. It helps when someone needs time to make sense of feelings and build confidence in their own choices.

The Gottman Method concentrates on communication patterns and practical interaction skills. It is useful for people looking to address relationship problems, improve dialogue and reduce recurring conflict.

Solution-Focused Therapy looks at small, achievable steps and what works now. It helps people set short-term goals and test simple changes between sessions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The counsellor will work with the client to decide which combination of listening, skill practice and goal-setting fits best. This is reviewed as therapy progresses so methods can be adjusted to the client’s needs and preferences.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow brief progress check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals often use remote sessions to maintain continuity of care and to support people who cannot attend in person.
