Olumide Ajulo
Counsellor, MBACP
I am an integrative counsellor, and I draw upon a number of different theories in order to provide the most appropriate therapeutic support to each of my clients. I believe that counselling can help us see the unhelpful patterns we find ourselves in, as well as explain why they are happening. This can then lead to a shift in perspective, and help us work towards permanent change in our lives. I believe my role is to assist clients as they go through this process, and support as they move towards the life they want.

You're probably considering whether I am a good fit for you - a good question. The centrality of our relationship is paramount for a good outcome in order to tackle your difficulties whether they be related to your feelings (e.g. anxiety, sadness, anger) or related to your relationships (e.g. avoidance, passivity, compliance). It is likely you have some ideas about how you've got here - we will explore these and develop a curiosity about them; how you have survived and coped but yet what is stopping you from thriving and living the life you want. Therapy should be transformative and centred upon your aims.

However, research shows that DBT therapy in Leeds has also been used successfully to treat people experiencing depression, bulimia, binge-eating, bipolar disorder, post-traumatic-stress disorder, and substance abuse. DBT skills are thought to have the capability of helping those who wish to improve their ability to regulate emotions, tolerate distress and negative emotion, be mindful and present in the given moment, and communicate and interact effectively with others.
