About Cheryl
Cheryl Fenech-Soler is a counsellor and psychotherapist with eight years' experience supporting people through difficult life moments. She holds BACP accreditation and works with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, stress, depression and grief. Cheryl aims to make the first step easier by offering a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk and be listened to.
She offers practical help alongside time to reflect. Sessions focus on understanding feelings, spotting unhelpful patterns, and trying small changes that make daily life easier.
Background and approach
Cheryl tailors each session to what the person needs that day rather than following a fixed script. Her background includes work with people affected by trauma, attachment difficulties and bereavement. She also supports those facing relationship strains, issues around self-esteem, and challenges such as sleep or eating concerns.
Cheryl draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at past patterns and on client-centred ways of making the person feel heard. Solution-focused techniques are used when clients want clear, short-term goals and practical steps. Cheryl aims to help people gain clarity and build coping strategies they can use between sessions.
The emphasis is on collaboration and small, achievable progress. Cheryl offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. Appointments can be arranged online by following the site's matching and booking process.
The work is shaped around each person’s goals and pace.
How Cheryl’s approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy places your concerns at the heart of the work. The therapist listens deeply and follows what matters most to you, helping you make sense of feelings and decide on next steps. This approach suits people who need a listening space and validation.Psychodynamic Therapy looks at repeated patterns and early relationships that shape how you respond today. It can help when old habits or past hurts keep showing up in current life. Talking this through can bring new understanding and room to try different responses.
Solution-Focused Therapy is practical and goal-directed. It helps when you want short-term change by identifying small, realistic steps and building on what already works for you.
Finding the right way of working is part of the process. Cheryl will collaborate with you to choose which approach or mix of methods fits your needs, goals and preferences. You will review progress together and adjust the focus as needed.
Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls are useful for a face-to-face feel, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging suit quick check-ins or times when typing feels easier. These options give flexibility for different schedules, locations and communication styles, while keeping the focus on the therapeutic work.
