Rebecca Sutherland, BACP

Client-Centred Therapy is about being heard and respected. The counsellor listens with attention and follows the client's lead to support clearer thinking and self-awareness. It can help when someone needs acceptance first and then practical steps to feel steadier.

Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns that repeat over time. Sessions explore how past experiences shape current feelings and reactions, which can be useful for problems such as depression, attachment worries and long-standing relationship difficulties.

Systemic Therapy considers how relationships and family or social systems affect a person's wellbeing. It helps when difficulties are tied up with family roles, parenting stress, or ongoing conflict with important people in life.

Finding the right way of working is a joint process. Rebecca will discuss the options and agree a plan with each person based on their goals and what feels most helpful. She adapts techniques as trust builds so therapy fits the individual's pace and needs.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls enable face-to-face conversation when that is important. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and suit shorter check-ins or when being on camera is hard. Live chat and text messaging let people reflect in writing and fit therapy around busy days. These formats make it easier to keep regular contact and to try different ways of working without rearranging daily routines.
