About Patricia
Patricia Telfer is a counsellor who focuses on helping people feeling stressed, anxious or low. She is approachable and direct, and aims to make it easier to talk about difficult feelings. Patricia holds BACP and has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.
Patricia uses a straightforward, honest style in sessions. She encourages people to share thoughts and feelings without judgement. The aim is to help clients make clearer plans and feel more able to cope with daily life.
Background and approach
Her work often supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. She also helps with relationship concerns, grief, sleep problems and managing anger. Patricia offers practical support for life changes and issues around control and self-love.
Sessions are structured around the client’s needs. Some people find a short block of sessions helpful for clarity and planning. Others work with Patricia for longer periods to manage ongoing difficulties and build new ways of coping.
Patricia describes her role as supportive and empowering. She works to help clients notice progress and use the skills learned in sessions after therapy ends. The focus is on clear steps and steady change rather than quick fixes.

Approaches Patricia 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
In practice this means sessions begin by asking what matters most to you and then working at your pace. The approach suits people who want a supportive space to clarify thoughts and make practical plans for change. Patricia uses this client-centred stance to help people notice options and decide on next steps together.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Patricia will discuss what feels most helpful and adapt sessions to your needs, goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and may change over time as you progress.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is helpful for a full face-to-face experience, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and text or chat works well for brief check-ins or for people who prefer to type. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family commitments and daily life while keeping focus on the issues you want to address.
