Funmilayo Oni draws on a decade of practice to help people who feel stuck by low self-esteem, relationship strain or life transitions. She holds BACP accreditation, and she combines coaching and counselling skills to support clients toward practical change. Her style is warm and non-judgemental, and she aims to make difficult conversations feel straightforward and manageable.

She understands what it is to struggle with confidence and the weight that can place on everyday life.

Background and approach

In sessions she works at a steady pace so people can name what matters and try out new ways of coping. The focus is on small, achievable steps that build independence and clearer direction. Her background covers relationship concerns, parenting stresses, workplace issues and emotional health such as anxiety, anger and depression.

She also addresses more specific worries like body image, infidelity and family problems. Coaching work is offered alongside counselling to help with career decisions, life purpose and performance goals. Therapy draws on person-centred ways of relating, plus goal-focused techniques and the Gottman Method for relationship work.

Sessions are tailored to each person and may include short-term solution-focused plans or longer work on self esteem and emotional healing. Sessions are offered in English and Funmilayo accepts international clients. She uses a subscription model for appointments that can be cancelled at any time.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time that suits them.

How her approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on understanding your perspective and building a trusting relationship so you feel heard and able to explore what matters most. It is useful for self-esteem, depression and general emotional concerns.

The Gottman Method is a structured way to address relationship difficulties by improving communication and reducing conflict. It helps people learn practical skills to manage arguments and rebuild connection.

Solution-Focused Therapy looks at small, concrete steps that lead to change and is helpful when you want short-term, goal-oriented progress for careers, life direction or coping with stress.

Choosing the right approach is something the therapist does together with each person. She will listen to your goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first, then adjust the plan if needed. The process is collaborative and paced to what feels useful for you.

Online sessions via video, phone, live chat or text make fitting therapy into a busy life easier. Video calls let you work face to face, phone sessions can be simpler if bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can suit quick check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it straightforward to keep momentum and stay connected from different locations.
