About Esnas
Esnas Turnbull is a counsellor who uses practical, evidence-informed approaches to help people manage stress, anxiety and phobias. She holds BACP accreditation and brings five years of experience supporting people through grief, trauma and self-esteem difficulties. Esnas aims to make the first step easier by offering calm, non-judgemental sessions and straightforward tools to work with difficult feelings.
Her style focuses on helping people notice patterns that cause suffering and try small changes that can make daily life easier.
Background and approach
Esnas blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help with anxious thoughts and avoidance. She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current reactions. Sessions are conversational and practical.
Clients can expect to talk about current problems, try simple exercises in the session, and build skills to use between meetings. Esnas keeps language plain and actions clear so people can use what they learn right away. She has supported people through a range of issues including compassion fatigue, career stress, divorce and separation, immigration concerns, and end-of-life matters.
Esnas is comfortable addressing complex feelings like guilt, shame and emptiness alongside trauma-related symptoms. Therapy is offered in English and can be delivered online by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. People from outside the United Kingdom are also able to work with her through the online formats.
Therapeutic approaches for online support
Esnas commonly combines Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing painful thoughts and feelings without fighting them and then choosing actions that matter to you, which can help with anxiety and avoidance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns, useful for panic, phobias and low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Esnas treats this as a collaboration and will discuss your goals and preferences to shape the plan. She may try practical CBT exercises, blend in ACT ideas about values, and use attachment-based conversations when relationships are part of the problem.
Online therapy offers flexibility and choice in how sessions happen. Video calls let you work face-to-face from any location, phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, live chat can suit quick check-ins, and text-based messaging helps people keep in touch between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring duties or travel while using the approaches described above with a registered professional.
