About Angela
Angela Farrelly is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports clients who are coping with life changes, motivation problems and confidence issues. Angela names LGBT concerns among her areas of focus.
She holds BACP accreditation and brings four years of professional experience to her work. In sessions she treats clients as the experts in their own lives.
Background and approach
She listens for strengths and practical options, then helps people try small steps that fit their goals. Conversations aim to be straightforward and steady rather than rushed. Angela emphasises compassion and clear, real-world strategies.
Her approach draws from several well known therapies. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps spot unhelpful thoughts and try alternatives. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on values and small actions that matter.
Attachment-based ideas are used to understand relationship patterns and emotional needs. Angela works at a pace chosen with each client. She encourages brief experiments between sessions to test what helps.
Many clients use tools from Dialectical Behaviour Therapy for emotional regulation and grounding techniques for stress. People who want to begin are invited to take a short matching questionnaire on the site. That makes it simple to set up a first session and agree on next steps together.

Approaches you can use in online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small steps towards those values despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It is often useful for stress, anxiety and motivation problems. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new ways of responding; it is commonly used for anxiety and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current ways of relating and can help with intimacy, trust and recurring relationship difficulties.Finding the right approach is part of the work and usually feels collaborative. The counsellor will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on what fits each person's needs and preferences. Clients and therapist decide together which tools to keep using.
The original profile does not specify session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around daily life, for example by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a break, or making it simpler to join from a quieter space. It can also make it easier to practise exercises between sessions and to use written tools or worksheets during conversations. Registered or accredited professionals can discuss practical arrangements and help choose a pattern of sessions that works with your routine.
