Before counselling, Holly spent over 20 years in the corporate world and draws on that life experience when helping people navigate change and career-related stress.

People who choose Holly can expect a calm, non-judgemental space to talk through painful experiences. She emphasises empathy, safety and moving at a client’s pace while supporting steps towards clearer thinking and improved coping.

How therapy approaches fit with online support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match your values. It often helps people feeling stuck with anxiety, low mood or difficult life changes by encouraging small, value-led steps. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical techniques to reduce distress and change unhelpful patterns. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships shape current ways of relating and can help with intimacy issues, abandonment concerns and ongoing relational hurts.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. Together they’ll try methods that fit the individual and adapt them if needed as therapy progresses.

The biography does not specify which online session formats are provided, so please confirm the current options before booking. Online working can make it easier to fit sessions around daily life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find it helpful to keep therapy going during busy weeks or while away from home, and a number of approaches translate well to remote sessions when the therapist and client agree together.
