Background and approach

Sessions are collaborative and paced to suit each person’s needs. With three years of professional counselling experience in the United Kingdom, Chloe brings a calm, compassionate presence. Her practice emphasises trust, respect and equality in the therapeutic relationship.

She aims to help people gain clearer insight into patterns that cause distress and to develop practical ways to manage them. Her work draws on Attachment-Based ideas to look at how relationships shape emotions and reactions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy tools are used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try alternative responses.

Chloe also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy techniques to help clients act in line with what matters to them despite difficult feelings. Chloe values straightforward conversation. She supports clients to set realistic goals and to try out new ways of coping between sessions.

The focus is on steady progress and on helping people feel more able to move through change.

How Chloe’s approaches translate to online therapy

Chloe commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based ideas alongside client-centred practice. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and then choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress and when life feels stuck. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships influence emotions and behaviour, which can help with patterns of connection or fear of abandonment. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the therapist providing empathic listening and respect so a person can explore their concerns at their own pace.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Chloe will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then suggest which ways of working might suit them. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as progress and needs emerge.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, while phone sessions can fit into a short break or suit those with limited bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick check-ins, shorter reflections or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to keep therapy going alongside work, caring responsibilities or other commitments.
