He trained in counselling and holds a Diploma in Counselling from Oxford (ODL) and a BSc in Counselling from the University of East London.
Background and approach
He also holds higher degrees in theology and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). His background includes work with community counselling services and work that has involved immigration-related issues. Sessions are practical and conversational.
He uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at feelings and attachment, Client-Centred Therapy to follow each person's lead, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot patterns and try different responses. He brings empathy, active listening and clear problem-solving to each meeting. People can expect straightforward language and step-by-step support rather than jargon.
Chibuike aims to make therapy adaptable to everyday life, using strategies you can try between sessions. He also offers mindfulness and existential ideas when people want to explore meaning or cope with uncertainty. Therapy is offered in several online formats to suit different needs.
Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and scheduling is arranged after a short matching questionnaire and booking process.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches work online with Chibuike
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and working with strong emotions and attachment patterns. It helps people understand how feelings shape reactions and how new emotional experiences can change difficult relationship dynamics.Client-Centred Therapy puts the person at the heart of the work. The counsellor follows your pace, reflects what you say and helps you find your own insights and choices. This approach is useful when someone needs a non-judgemental space to make sense of their feelings.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thought patterns and behaviours that keep problems going. It breaks these into small steps and tests out new ways of thinking and acting, which can help with anxiety, low mood and unhelpful routines.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and how you react to different methods, and then suggest a flexible plan. That plan can change as you try things and notice what helps most.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit varied schedules. Video calls let you see each other and use visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins and messaging can work for brief reflections between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work and family life.
