Mrs Bolanle Shonubi

When I began therapy, I was on a difficult journey back to myself and Bola has been there to guide and support every step of the way. I've grown into myself more in these past two years than I have in my entire life thanks to Bola's fearlessness to travel to places I once thought scary, her readiness and directness in calling attention to things I couldn't yet see and her ability to balance a wealth of skill and knowledge with genuine compassion and kindness.

Felt comfortable during the session and felt fulfilling when I left

She was professional but also welcoming and pleasant.

I’ve had a really positive experience with Dr Bola and enjoy attending my sessions. She’s created a really safe space where I feel like I can talk to her about anything without any judgement. I’ve started to notice real progress in my self esteem in day to day life, which I’m really grateful for. I would highly recommend Dr Bola to anyone looking for a supportive and professional therapist.

My experience was very good how I was made to feel relaxed and heard

I worked with Bola for a number of years and can honestly say it transformed my life. A regular part of our sessions was that I'd say thank you, and Bola would say, "no need to thank me. You're doing the work", but up until the time I started seeing Bola I had no idea where to begin. I wanted things to change and improve but I didn't know how. I had never had a therapy session before and the idea of starting was daunting. From the first session where Bola told me she thought she could help me, to a very tearful goodbye (from my side) years later, our sessions became a key part of my week. Bola supported and guided me in making small incremental changes in the way I approached relationships, family and myself, until I felt huge shifts. I opened doors I didn't know I was afraid to open and found peace with things that had played on my mind and on my feelings for years. At some points this involved asking myself painful questions or confronting the answers I already had but didn't want to accept. I left some sessions crying, some laughing, some pensive and some angry. Not because of Bola but because she was slowly teaching me to identify my emotions and go through them, not around them. I truly felt supported every step of the way. Bola created the one space in my life at the time where I felt I could be truly honest without fear of judgement. It was an environment that felt like a small 50 minute cut away each week where I could really let my guard down. I learned to set better boundaries with myself and others, and to identify how I was truly feeling and work through i...

Bola has been really supportive and non-judgemental - gently clear guiding me through my healing, always raising excellent points for me to reflect on. I have been become so much more self-aware and in tune with my body, feelings and emotions which have contributed to improve my wellbeing as week as reduce my stress levels in managing relationships dynamics. Each session leaves me with new questions and encourage me to look at things in a deeper level; it has been a positive experience and quite transformative and enjoy being in the new space I am fining myself in

Opening up to the Therapist mad a world of difference and in the long run, I think will increase my chances of getting better
