Background and approach

She also draws on cognitive behavioural techniques when thoughts and unhelpful patterns get in the way. That can include noticing difficult thinking, testing it, and trying new behaviours to see what changes. Motivational interviewing is used when people want help finding momentum for change, and solution-focused ideas support short-term practical goals.

Her background includes 13 years of counselling experience and registration with NCPS, which appears after her name as NCPS. She volunteers with a bereavement charity and has supported people through grief and loss in that role. Beverley-Ann has a particular interest in women’s health and the pressures around peri-menopause and menopause.

She also supports people dealing with caregiving strain, chronic illness, workplace stress and changes in life direction. Sessions are offered in English and are held from the United Kingdom.

Approaches that guide online counselling

Her work is rooted in person-centred counselling, which means the conversation follows the client’s concerns and values. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears and helps people make sense of their feelings so they can choose their next steps.

She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to help with anxiety and low mood. These methods focus on spotting unhelpful thoughts, testing them and trying small actions that alter how people feel. Motivational interviewing is used when someone needs support to find direction and build motivation for change.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and she treats it as a collaboration. Together they will discuss goals, try different ways of working and pick methods that match the person’s needs and preferences.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video can suit deeper conversations, phone calls fit lower bandwidth or hands-free check-ins, and chat or messaging can work well for brief reflections or when written communication feels easier. These options help people fit therapy around work, family and other commitments.
