About Odin
Odin Parmenter is a counsellor who focuses on helping people with stress and anxiety. He works with adults facing depression, relationship strain, grief and life changes. Odin aims to create a respectful, sensitive space where people feel heard and understood.
He is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Odin brings three years of clinical experience and a background of working in London’s diverse communities. That background informs how he thinks about culture, identity and LGBTQ+ concerns.
Background and approach
Odin uses an integrative, relational style. That means he adapts methods to fit each person rather than following one fixed technique. He mixes talking therapies with attention to how the body and mind interact, noticing how feelings show up physically as well as mentally.
In sessions he aims to be non-judgemental and practical. Conversations focus on what matters to the client now - reducing panic, managing mood, rebuilding trust or finding life purpose. He can also help with issues such as addiction, ADHD, sleep difficulties, sexual and intimacy concerns, and caregiver stress.
Odin accepts international clients and runs sessions in English. He offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. People start by completing a short matching questionnaire and arranging sessions according to availability.
How his approach translates to online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps when worry, fear of abandonment or difficulty trusting others affects close relationships, and it can bring clarity to recurring relational problems.Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the centre and relies on empathy and acceptance. It is useful for building self-esteem, working through shame and finding clearer personal direction without pressure to perform.
Odin treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. He will work with each person to decide whether attachment work, person-centred conversations or CBT-style tasks are the best fit. Goals, preferences and what feels most helpful guide that decision together.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone conversations, live chat and text messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversations and body-mind noticing, while phone calls can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is a problem. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins, practical coaching or reflection between longer sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into busy lives.
