About Olubunmi
Olubunmi Jones is a counsellor who draws on four years of clinical practice to help people facing stress, anxiety, grief and depression. She uses a narrative-informed way of working alongside relational approaches to help people tell and reshape their stories. Olubunmi holds BACP accreditation and works from the United Kingdom.
She keeps sessions straightforward and practical. Conversations focus on what is happening now and how past events shape current patterns.
Background and approach
People often bring worries about sleep, parenting strain, low self-esteem or recovery from abuse, and she helps them find small, manageable steps forward. Her background includes work with trauma, compassion fatigue and long-term health issues. Olubunmi blends Attachment-Based ideas with Client-Centred listening to make space for strong emotions.
Narrative Therapy is used to separate someone from a problem and to explore different ways of understanding it. Sessions aim to build awareness of relational patterns and to increase choice in daily life. She offers tools for coping with life changes, addressing family of origin issues, and managing guilt or shame.
The pace is set by the person in front of her, with practical work between sessions when it helps. Olubunmi is comfortable using video, phone, live chat or text messaging for online work. People who want to start can complete a short matching questionnaire and book a time that suits them.
She does not take international clients.

Narrative Therapy in this listing
Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how she works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.
If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Olubunmi directly how she uses it and what a session usually looks like.
Online session options
How narrative and relational approaches work online
Olubunmi often uses Narrative Therapy to help people separate themselves from their problems and rewrite the stories that hold them back. That approach can be useful for anxiety, shame, grief and identity questions because it focuses on alternative meanings and personal strengths.She also draws on Attachment-Based ideas to look at patterns in close relationships and how those patterns affect wellbeing. Client-Centred work underpins both approaches through attentive listening and responding to each person's pace and needs.
Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, try different ways of working, and adjust methods based on what feels most helpful. This is a collaborative process aimed at discovering what fits each person's situation.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video sessions let people speak face to face, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits short check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life.
