About Gerrard
Gerrard Fauguel is a counsellor who works from a person-centred perspective. He uses a warm, open style to help people talk through anxiety, stress, addiction and relationship problems. Gerrard draws on 23 years of experience and holds BACP registration, bringing steady support when life feels difficult.
He focuses on practical conversation and collaborative goal-setting. Sessions aim to make sense of feelings and choices, and to explore small steps that can reduce distress.
Background and approach
Gerrard listens without judgement and adapts his approach to each person's needs. Many people come for help with grief, depression, parenting strains, sleeping problems, anger or career uncertainty. He also supports those coping with trauma, abuse, intimacy concerns and compassion fatigue.
Additional areas he works on include attachment and abandonment issues, codependency, substance problems and the emotional impact of serious illness. Gerrard combines client-centred ways of working with emotionally-focused and solution-oriented ideas. He uses motivational techniques when someone needs support to make changes.
Therapy is collaborative - goals, pace and techniques are agreed together. Sessions are offered in English and are available to people in the United Kingdom and internationally. He offers conversations by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
The process begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling according to availability.
Approaches that guide online counselling
Gerrard commonly uses client-centred therapy and emotionally-focused work to guide online sessions. Client-centred therapy means the conversation is led by the person's experience, with the counsellor offering empathic listening and gentle reflection to help clarify feelings and choices. Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on the patterns in important relationships and on identifying emotions beneath behaviour, which can be useful for anxiety and intimacy-related concerns.He also draws on motivational interviewing when someone needs encouragement to change a habit or tackle addiction. This approach uses respectful questions to strengthen personal motivation and plan small steps forward. Together these methods help with stress, anxiety, relationship strain and coping with life changes in a practical way.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Gerrard will talk with each person about what feels most helpful and adjust techniques as goals and preferences become clearer. Therapy is collaborative, with pace and focus agreed between counsellor and client.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper, face-to-face conversation while phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging let people keep a regular connection between sessions or choose a quieter, written way to reflect. These options add flexibility and make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments.
