About Angela
Angela Farrelly is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people dealing with stress, anxiety and depression. She also helps those facing low self-esteem, motivation problems and major life changes. Angela speaks plain language and aims to make the first steps into therapy feel manageable for anyone checking this on a phone.
She works from the view that each person knows their own story best. Sessions focus on finding strengths you already have and using them to meet current challenges.
Background and approach
Conversations are down-to-earth and paced to match what the person needs that week. Angela draws on a mix of practical approaches to help people notice patterns and try new ways of coping. She uses tools to help with difficult feelings, unhelpful thinking and strained relationships.
The emphasis is on small, doable steps rather than big leaps. With four years' experience and BACP registration, she brings a calm, steady presence to sessions. That background informs a clear, structured way of working while keeping things warm and personal.
People who come for help with grief, addiction, sleep or eating issues, neurodiversity concerns, parenting strain, or workplace stress often find the sessions useful. Angela also supports people managing trauma effects, bipolar mood difficulties and compassion fatigue by tailoring approaches to each situation.

Online support
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through goals, preferences and what feels manageable. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as progress happens, keeping the client involved at each step.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls are good for face-to-face style conversations, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging suits brief check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and busy days while keeping the focus on practical steps and real-life changes.
