Background and approach

Prior to counselling she worked for more than 15 years as a nurse in hospital and community settings, including roles in adult mental health services and work with addiction groups. In sessions she draws on methods such as cognitive behavioural techniques, attachment-based ideas and person-centred listening.

These are used to notice unhelpful thinking, improve emotional connections and focus on what matters to the person in front of her. Some clients choose to work on practical habit changes, while others explore feelings from past experiences. Ceri can support people with depression, trauma and grief, eating concerns, sleeping problems, parenting stress, career strain and compassion fatigue.

She also works with long-term health challenges, chronic pain and issues around adoption, abandonment and attachment. Work is offered online by phone, video, live chat or text messaging. International clients who speak English can be seen.

To begin, the site questionnaire is completed and a booking is arranged according to the therapist's schedule.

Approach-led online therapy that fits your life

Attachment-based work focuses on how early bonds shape current relationships and emotional responses. It can help when trust, closeness or fear of abandonment affect how someone connects with others.

Client-centred therapy puts the person and their experience at the heart of the session. The counsellor listens without judgement and helps the client find their own solutions and regain confidence.

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) addresses unhelpful thinking and behaviour. It provides concrete techniques for anxiety, phobias, low mood and habit change, with short practical exercises to try between sessions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through options, try different methods and agree what feels most useful based on goals and preferences. You decide the pace and what to focus on as work progresses.

Online formats give flexibility for busy lives. Video calls are close to face-to-face meetings and suit deeper conversations. Phone sessions or audio-only calls need less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into work breaks. Live chat or text-based messaging supports shorter check-ins, written reflections and ongoing coaching between longer sessions.
