About Heather
Heather practises person-centred counselling, also described as Client-Centred Therapy. That means sessions focus on the person's own goals and values. She listens without judgement and helps people make sense of difficult thoughts and feelings in their own way.
Her work has included supporting people with trauma and abuse, depression, grief and addiction concerns. Heather also supports issues around self-esteem, intimacy and parenting, and helps people manage life changes and the strain of caring roles. She aims to tailor each session to the situation the person brings.
In the room, Heather encourages honest talk and paced reflection. She helps people explore practical steps they can try between sessions. Conversations are guided by the person's priorities rather than a fixed agenda.
Heather trained and practises in the United Kingdom and holds BACP. She has three years of professional experience in person-centred work and supports people as they work towards clearer choices and calmer days.

How Client-Centred Work Fits with Online Therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's priorities and helps them lead the pace of change. In this approach the counsellor offers active listening, empathy and reflection so the person can identify what matters most and make their own decisions. It is useful for issues such as stress, anger, relationship strain and coping with life changes.Because Heather uses Client-Centred Therapy the early sessions are about understanding the person's goals and preferences. She will work collaboratively to decide how best to proceed and to adapt the way she works to fit those aims. Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be agreed together as therapy progresses.
Please confirm the available session options before booking, as the original biography does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into busy days, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that suits. It can also help people continue on therapy while they manage work, family or other commitments.
