About Grant
Grant Roberts is a counsellor with 25 years of experience who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and low self-esteem. He also supports those dealing with grief, eating concerns, addiction and relationship or intimacy-related issues. Grant works in the United Kingdom and communicates in English.
He uses a humanistic, person-centred stance. That means he listens without judgement and aims to make clients feel heard and accepted before moving on to practical work.
Background and approach
Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person's needs. Grant practices in an integrative way, drawing on cognitive behavioural methods and emotion-focused ideas alongside attachment-informed thinking. He offers practical tools and strategies to reduce distress, manage difficult feelings and build confidence.
The aim is to help people notice what matters to them and take steps in that direction. People can expect clear, straightforward conversations and exercises they can try between sessions. Techniques might include ways to spot unhelpful thinking, behavioural experiments to test out new habits, and grounding skills for intense emotions.
Grant encourages small, achievable changes rather than big overnight fixes. His background spans long-term clinical work with adults across many presenting problems, including trauma and abuse, bipolar and ADHD-related concerns. He also addresses issues such as attachment difficulties, dissociation and body image, always adapting the approach to the individual.
If someone wants to begin, Grant guides them through the practical steps to get connected and start sessions.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take small steps towards those values while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and gives practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns and reduce distress. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current patterns and works to build more supported ways of relating and emotion regulation.Finding the right way of working is part of therapy. Grant will talk with each person about their difficulties, goals and preferences and then suggest approaches that fit. The process is collaborative and adjustments are made if something is not helping.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations when seeing facial cues matters, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer written reflection or who want support between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caring duties and day-to-day life while using the approaches above in a practical, goal-focused way.
