About me
My name is Funmi Ajayi-Daniels welcome to my practice. At Lighthouse Counselling Services, I use an integrative therapeutic approach to work with adults, ages 18 and above.
To cope with life's difficulties, some people turn to alcohol, drugs, or other addictive behaviours. It is ok to find life hard. My speciality is working with people who worry about their mental health and I hope to help them manage it well. I offer an entirely non-judgemental, confidential, compassionate, and safe space to talk about these things and help you identify what changes you would prefer to make going forward.
Another advantage of working with me as a Couples Therapist and a Marriage Counsellor is that I also have years of experience in Christian Couples and individual Counselling and this can give you the space to explore your spirituality or religion in the context you desire. I will be very open and willing to help you in this regard if you choose to.
This means that you get overhaul care and support with me where your total mental well-being is concerned. I offer both Secular and Christian Therapeutic Experiences where my clients are concerned. This comes with understanding, non-judgemental and non-biased, in an empathic and compassionate way.

Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
