Therapeutic approaches and online support
Folashade integrates several evidence-informed approaches to tailor work to each person’s needs. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy - ACT encourages people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them while clarifying personal values to guide committed action; it is often used for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns of relating that began in early relationships and explores how those patterns affect current intimacy and communication; it can help with relationship and attachment concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - CBT works on identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning; it is commonly used for anxiety and depression.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Folashade works collaboratively with clients to determine which techniques fit their goals, preferences, and lived experience, adjusting methods as progress unfolds. This collaborative stance helps ensure therapy stays relevant and practical.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage - through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - so people can access support from different locations and at times that suit their schedules. For many, this flexibility makes it easier to maintain regular sessions, manage ongoing commitments, and continue work with registered professionals even when life circumstances change.
