Graham Morris

Graham Morris is a BACP counsellor who brings three years of practice to people facing difficult personal and life changes. He offers a calm, straightforward space to talk through issues like relationships, self-esteem and career challenges. Graham writes in a welcoming manner and aims to help people find practical ways forward at their own pace.

He works from a trauma-informed stance that prioritises trust, choice and collaboration. That means he pays attention to how past events can affect current feelings and responses. Sessions are aimed at helping clients make sense of what is happening and figure out steps that feel manageable.

Graham uses client-centred approaches to focus on each person's unique experience. He also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions link together. Together these approaches allow for both understanding and practical change.

His background includes work in universities, high schools and with charities. That range has involved supporting people with grief, anxiety, workplace stress, identity questions and difficulties linked to illness or caregiving. He has worked with people across different ages, sexual orientations and cultural backgrounds.

If someone is coping with abandonment, attachment issues, body image concerns, chronic illness, or the effects of trauma, Graham can offer steady support and encouragement. Prospective clients are invited to consider what they want to change and bring those aims to the first conversations.

How Graham uses client-centred work and CBT online

Graham combines client-centred therapy and cognitive behavioural therapy in ways that suit each person. Client-centred work focuses on listening carefully and reflecting what the person is experiencing so they can make sense of it. This helps people who need space to talk through identity, relationship or loss issues.

Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact. It offers straightforward techniques to challenge unhelpful thinking and try new behaviours, which can be useful for anxiety, low mood and workplace stress.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Graham treats the selection of methods as a collaboration and will discuss goals, preferences and how you respond as therapy progresses. Adjustments are made together rather than imposed.

The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around busy schedules and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to attend regular shorter sessions or to keep appointments during work breaks. Confirm the specific session formats offered before booking, as options are set by the therapist and may vary.
