Faithful Odusote

Hi, I’m Faithful, a Psychological Wellbeing Practitioner (PWP), CBT Therapist and Trainer.
 

With extensive experience in mental health care, I am committed to providing effective, evidence-based psychological interventions for individuals facing various challenges. My passion for enhancing patient care is reflected in feedback from clients, highlighting my ability to listen, validate feelings, and empower individuals to progress positively. My clinical background includes therapeutic work within NHS Talking Therapies, alongside my active involvement in quality improvement initiatives and service development. I also participate in and deliver presentations, training, and workshops within conferences to share insights and promote awareness on important topics.

Therapeutic Style

I utilize a client-centred, collaborative, and flexible approach grounded in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) as endorsed by NICE. My focus is on building strengths and equipping clients with practical skills to navigate life's challenges. I strive to create a therapeutic environment where clients feel safe, listened to, and supported throughout their treatment. Clients have expressed appreciation for my professionalism, kindness, and encouragement, noting that I provide space for them to explore various concerns at their own pace. I emphasize flexibility in addressing individual needs, making adaptations to therapy where appropriate, as I see this as an important aspect of effective treatment. The personal connections I establish enhance the therapeutic experience and assist clients in navigating challenging topics.

What You Can Expect from a Session
 

In our sessions, we will explore the connections between your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours, targeting negative thinking patterns and behaviours while promoting healthier coping mechanisms. This structured approach aims to address symptoms while fostering long-term growth. I have experience working with a range of issues, including PTSD, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem challenges. My goal as a therapist is to facilitate your independence, helping you to become your own therapist by equipping you with the tools and strategies needed to manage difficulties on your own and enhance your overall well-being.

Mentoring and Development
 

I also have experience mentoring others in the field and am open to mentoring, training, and service development consultancy opportunities.
