About Timileyin

Timileyin "Timi" William is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years' experience. He works with people dealing with addiction recovery, relationship problems, anxiety, depression and the effects of trauma. Timi also addresses concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues, body image, codependency and impulses that affect daily life.

In sessions he looks at how past experiences affect current choices. He helps people notice patterns and consider alternative ways of responding. Conversations focus on practical steps and clearer decision-making rather than jargon or promises of quick fixes.

Timi has particular experience in addiction recovery counselling and in running group work. He draws on a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions, selecting what seems most useful for each person. His approach includes attention to attachment and relationship dynamics when these are relevant.

People who see him can expect direct discussion about behaviours, triggers and coping strategies. He pays attention to how feelings like guilt, shame or fear shape actions and relationships. He also brings experience supporting people dealing with immigration issues and HIV / AIDS related concerns.

Sessions are conducted in English and Yoruba for those who prefer either language. International clients are accepted. To start, a short matching questionnaire is used and a first appointment is scheduled through the online process described on the site.

How evidence-based approaches are used in online sessions

Timileyin uses a range of evidence-based techniques to structure sessions in clear, practical ways. He often draws on approaches that focus on understanding behaviour patterns and triggers, helping people develop new coping skills to manage anxiety, cravings or low mood. These methods emphasise small, testable changes someone can try between sessions.

He also pays attention to attachment and relationship patterns. This involves talking about how past relationships influence current reactions, and practising different ways of communicating and setting boundaries. For people dealing with trauma or relationship strain, this can make everyday decisions feel less automatic and more chosen.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist works collaboratively to identify which techniques fit a person's goals and preferences, adjusting methods as the sessions progress. Clients are invited to give feedback so the plan can change if something is not helpful.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can use remote sessions to continue group or individual work, while decisions about session length and frequency are agreed between the person and the therapist.
