Aaron Squire

Aaron Squire, BACP, supports people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood, past trauma, relationship strain, or problematic patterns such as addiction and low self‑esteem. He also helps with grief, intimacy concerns, parenting stress, career strain, ADHD-related challenges, and other life changes. Aaron writes plainly and aims to make therapy feel practical and manageable for people who are unsure where to start.

He uses a straightforward, conversational style in sessions. He listens, asks clear questions, and helps people work out what matters most to them. His approach is focused on understanding the person in front of him and finding useful ways to move forward rather than offering quick fixes.

Aaron blends several psychotherapy approaches to suit each person. He draws on client-centred work to prioritise the person’s experience, cognitive behavioural therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, and psychodynamic ideas to look at recurring life themes. He also uses mindfulness and narrative techniques when they fit the client’s goals.

With three years of experience in practice and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, Aaron brings a steady, down-to-earth manner to sessions. He aims to make therapy feel like a collaborative process where practical steps follow from honest conversation.

People who feel stuck or are facing a painful change can expect clear, goal-oriented conversations. Aaron helps people identify small steps they can try between sessions and reviews progress together.

How Aaron uses common approaches in online work

Aaron commonly draws on client-centred therapy and cognitive behavioural therapy in sessions. Client-centred work means the conversation follows the person’s concerns and priorities, with the therapist reflecting back what he hears to help clarify feelings and choices. Cognitive behavioural therapy involves spotting patterns of thought and behaviour that contribute to stress or low mood and trying small behavioural experiments or thought exercises to test new ways of coping.

He also uses mindfulness and narrative techniques when they suit the goals of the person. Mindfulness practices teach simple attention exercises to reduce reactivity and improve calm. Narrative work helps people separate themselves from difficult stories they may be telling about their life and try new ways of describing their experiences.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Aaron will discuss options with you and decide together what seems most useful for your goals and preferences. The process is collaborative and may change as progress is made.

Session formats are not specified in this biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when that suits, and reduce travel time so conversations can happen between appointments or in a lunch break. Registered and accredited professionals often adapt exercises and between-session steps so they work well in an online setting, and Aaron will shape sessions to fit practical needs.
