"I work with therapists and coaches who hold a lot for other people and have very little practice holding it for themselves."
Booking happens on Sade Okonkwo's own scheduling system. The Wholeness Work doesn't hold the calendar.
About Sade Okonkwo.
I'm a psychotherapist by training (UKCP, accredited 2011) and ran a private practice in London for over a decade before training in the Wholeness Work. The reason I trained wasn't to add it to my clinical toolkit — it was because I needed something for myself.
Therapists carry a lot. The good ones know how to hold space for other people; many of them are notably worse at holding it for their own internal weather. I was one of those. The Wholeness Work was the first method I found that worked on the thing underneath that pattern — not the burnout itself, but the sense of self that takes responsibility for everyone in the room.
I work almost exclusively with practitioners now — therapists, coaches, supervisors, doctors, anyone in a helping role. Sessions are for their own practice, not for clinical training. If you want to learn the method professionally, the Coach Training is the route; what I offer is the personal version of the work.
What I tend to focus on.
These are the patterns clients arrive with most often. The work itself doesn't depend on the pattern — the method is the same whether you're working with anxiety, grief, a stuck habit, or just a sense of background tension you can't quite name.
What a session is like.
A session is 60 to 90 minutes, on video call. Sade Okonkwo guides you through the Wholeness Work, slowly enough that you can actually feel what's happening. You don't need to know the method beforehand — coaches are trained to lead you through it without prior context.
- You bring whatever's present. A pattern, a feeling, a situation. You don't need to know what you "want to work on." Most clients don't, at first.
- The coach leads you through the process. Gentle questions, no re-living difficult material, no narrative work. You stay in your own experience throughout.
- What shifts, shifts on its own. The method works by dissolution, not by effort. Many clients describe the session afterwards as "less like therapy, more like the inside of the room got bigger."
- You leave with something repeatable. Over time, the process becomes something you can use on your own, between sessions.
Booking, payment, and rescheduling all happen on Sade Okonkwo's own system — the Wholeness Work doesn't sit in the middle. If you want to feel the work before choosing a coach, the Free Intro is the gentlest place to start.
