About Holly
Holly Larsen is a counsellor who aims to support people wrestling with stress, anxiety, relationship strain and trauma. She presents a calm, non-judgemental presence and encourages practical steps toward better day-to-day coping. Holly uses straightforward conversation and listening to help people find what matters to them and start making changes.
Holly is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, often shown as BACP. She has around four years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.
Background and approach
That background includes work with people facing grief, depression, addiction and challenges around self-esteem and body image. Her practice also covers concerns tied to family and parenting, intimacy and communication problems, and life transitions such as divorce and career change. Holly understands issues like abandonment, attachment and avoidant personality patterns, and she helps people notice how those patterns shape relationships and choices.
Holly describes a therapeutic space where clients can speak freely and feel heard. She focuses on listening and reflecting back what she hears so people can make sense of their feelings and options. Sessions emphasise practical steps, clearer communication and small changes that add up over time.
People who identify as LGBT are included among the areas Holly lists. She also supports those coping with ADHD symptoms, bipolar mood concerns, eating and sleeping problems, and compassion fatigue. If someone is unsure whether this approach fits, Holly encourages an initial conversation to discuss goals and next steps.

How client-centred work adapts to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy is built on listening, non-judgemental presence and helping people find their own answers. In practice this means the counsellor reflects what is said, asks gentle questions and helps the person notice patterns that matter. This approach can be useful for anxiety, depression, relationship worries and many life changes.The therapeutic process often involves trying different ways of working together to see what fits. Holly would collaborate with each person to pick approaches that match their needs and goals. That means checking in about what helps, adapting the pace, and choosing techniques that feel manageable for the individual.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around daytime commitments, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer to meet from familiar surroundings or who need flexible scheduling. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt a client-centred way of working to either in-person or remote sessions, and Holly would help decide what arrangement best supports progress and practical needs.
