Background and approach

He is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). He tends to combine Acceptance and Commitment Therapy with attachment-aware and client-centred methods. In sessions he helps people name difficult emotions, notice unhelpful patterns and try small changes that matter day-to-day.

He favours approaches that encourage feeling experiences rather than avoiding them. Wellington often supports people dealing with trauma, relationship and intimacy concerns, low self-esteem, addictions and grief. He also works with body image, codependency, abandonment worries and anger.

Sessions aim to set clear goals and practical steps toward feeling better. Many clients use online formats such as video, phone or messaging. Wellington describes therapy as a collaborative process where the client sets the pace and the counsellor offers steady guidance.

He frames progress in achievable steps rather than vague promises.

How online therapy and focused approaches work together

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress and avoidance patterns by teaching practical steps and simple mindfulness exercises.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current patterns in close relationships. It can help with intimacy concerns, abandonment worries and codependency by clarifying relational expectations and emotional responses.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Wellington will discuss different options and decide together which methods match a person’s goals and preferences. This collaborative process means therapy is adapted to what a person wants to address and how quickly they wish to move.

Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for deeper emotional work, phone sessions can fit a lunch break or require less bandwidth, and live chat or text messaging suit quick check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care while fitting sessions into everyday life.
