Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Folashade Dada integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy into her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them and focuses on identifying personal values to guide meaningful action - it can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores early patterns of relating and how they shape current relationships, helping clients understand and shift patterns that affect intimacy, communication, and trust.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Folashade works collaboratively with each client to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors interventions over time and invites clients to reflect on what feels most helpful, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.
Online therapy with licensed professionals offers practical flexibility - sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone meetings, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent support from therapists while balancing work, family, and other commitments, and they allow therapy to continue across distances for international clients.
