About Cheryl
Cheryl Hunton is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people who are feeling stressed, anxious or low in mood. She works with clients who struggle with confidence, motivation, anger, grief and life changes. Cheryl brings a calm, warm style to sessions and aims to make talking about difficult things feel easier.
Cheryl trained as a BACP counsellor, which means she is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
Background and approach
She has five years of professional experience and uses that background to tailor support to each person’s needs. Sessions are intended to be non-judgemental and focused on what matters most to the client. Her main approach is Client-Centred Therapy, which puts the person’s experience at the centre of sessions.
She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat over time, and uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques for practical steps and coping tools. This mix aims to combine understanding with useful strategies. In sessions Cheryl offers a listening space where clients can talk through what is happening and try new ways of responding.
She works at a pace that suits each person and discusses options so you can decide what feels right. Her style is straightforward and supportive. Cheryl works online with video, phone, live chat and text-based messaging.
She does not take international clients and offers work in English only. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to availability.

Approaches Cheryl lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Finding the right method is part of the work together. Cheryl will discuss different options in early sessions and adapt her approach to match your needs, goals and preferences. The process is collaborative and you can agree what feels most useful as you go.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is good for conversations that benefit from face-to-face interaction. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer written communication or want flexible, brief exchanges. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or other daily commitments and allow people to access support from different locations.
