About Ganiyat
Ganiyat Olaleye is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with six years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety and depression. She also helps with relationship concerns, grief, parenting worries and motivation difficulties.
She believes clients are the experts on their own lives. She looks for strengths people already have and uses those as a starting point. Sessions are aimed at practical steps that make day-to-day life feel easier.
Background and approach
Her work draws on several approaches, including Jungian therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy and cognitive behavioural therapy. She adapts her methods to each person’s needs rather than following a single formula. Conversations can include looking at patterns, learning new coping skills, and clarifying values and goals.
Ganiyat has supported people with issues such as anger, self-esteem, addictions, intimacy-related struggles and sleep or eating difficulties. She also offers help around career questions, coping with life changes and compassion fatigue. Sessions are offered in English and Yoruba and are available to international clients.
She uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging so people can choose what fits their routine. The first step is a short matching questionnaire to connect people to the right scheduling option. Ganiyat holds BACP and NCPS credentials.
She frames therapy as a collaborative process and focuses on small, achievable changes that add up over time.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Ganiyat uses Jungian therapy to help people explore personal stories, recurring life themes and symbolic material that shape how they feel and act. This approach can help when someone wants a deeper understanding of patterns and inner drives. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy or ACT, which focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while moving towards a values-driven life. ACT often helps with anxiety, low mood and motivation struggles.She approaches therapy as a collaborative process. Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work and she will help clients decide what feels most helpful based on their goals and preferences. That process can involve trying different techniques and checking what makes the most difference in daily life.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth, live chat can suit shorter or more frequent check-ins, and messaging is useful for ongoing support between meetings. These options give flexibility for work schedules, travel or quieter surroundings so people can choose what works best for them.
