Patricia Campbell, BACP

Patricia draws on common evidence-based techniques that focus on practical change and clearer thinking. One approach helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and try out new ways of interpreting situations; it is useful for anxiety and low mood because it teaches simple steps to challenge negative thoughts. Another approach emphasises small behavioural experiments and routine changes to rebuild motivation - this helps with low energy, depression and restoring confidence in daily life.

Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the work. Patricia collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences and life circumstances. She checks in regularly and adjusts plans if something isn’t working so the care feels personalised rather than fixed.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for fuller interaction. Phone sessions and live chat suit quieter check-ins or lower bandwidth situations. Text-based messaging can work for brief updates, journalling or when someone prefers writing to speaking. Together these options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments, while keeping the focus on making steady, achievable progress.
