About Cheryl
Cheryl Fenech-Soler is a counsellor who aims to make reaching out easier. She introduces herself with a warm, straightforward tone and invites people to take a first step when life feels overwhelming. Cheryl’s work focuses on helping people manage anxiety and related difficulties in day-to-day life.
She offers a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk through what matters most to them. Conversations are shaped around each person's needs, not a single method.
Background and approach
Cheryl aims to help people gain clarity, find coping tools and feel more able to face difficult situations. Cheryl trained and practises as a psychotherapist and counsellor, and holds the BACP credential. She draws on a range of ways of working to match the approach to the person in front of her.
This means sessions can feel practical and grounded, or more reflective depending on what a client needs. Her experience covers a wide set of concerns, from grief and trauma to stress, depression and relationship worries. Cheryl also supports people with parenting pressures, self-esteem and issues linked to neurodiversity and long-term illness.
She works with whatever is causing distress and helps people find small steps forward. Cheryl adapts sessions to suit the individual, whether the focus is short-term problem solving or longer-term exploration. She explains options, listens closely, and plans therapy with the client.
The aim is realistic progress and better coping in everyday life.
How Cheryl's approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and helping the client lead the conversation. The therapist offers empathy and reflection so people can find their own solutions; this can help with anxiety, self-esteem and relationship worries. Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns from past experience that affect present feelings and behaviour. It can help when recurring problems, attachment or childhood issues are a concern. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on practical steps and clear goals. Sessions aim to identify small, achievable changes to reduce stress and move a person forward.Choosing the right way of working is part of the process. Cheryl will discuss options with each person and together they will decide which approach or combination feels most useful. This is a collaborative process that adapts over time as goals and needs change.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit support into a busy life. Video calls let people use visual contact for a fuller conversation. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging offer shorter, flexible ways to reflect between sessions or for people who prefer not to be on camera. These formats increase accessibility and help people sustain regular work on their goals.
