Angela Farrelly, BACP

Angela Farrelly works with people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and life changes. She also supports those dealing with motivation, confidence and the ripple effects of trauma, grief and relationship struggles. Angela names addictions, sleep and eating concerns, parenting strain and neurodiverse issues among areas she addresses.

She describes clients as the experts in their own story and aims to build on their existing strengths. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer day-to-day routines as well as on understanding patterns that keep problems going. Angela uses straightforward language and keeps work focused on what matters now.

Her way of working draws on a mix of approaches. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and habits. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports values-led choices when feelings are intense. Attachment-based ideas and client-centred listening guide how she explores relationships and emotional responses.

Angela holds BACP accreditation, which is a professional registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She has four years of practice experience in the United Kingdom. Her approach is practical and collaborative rather than technical or academic.

Clients who want to start are asked to complete a short questionnaire so sessions can be matched to needs. Angela frames the first meetings as a chance to set goals together and to try simple strategies that fit daily life.

How therapy approaches guide online work

Angela often uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers simple tools to change unhelpful patterns. CBT can help with anxiety, low mood, sleep and day-to-day routines.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on what matters most to a person and on taking small steps toward those values even when feelings are difficult. ACT can be useful for managing distress and for staying connected to goals during life change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with clients about needs, goals and preferences, and together they will try methods that fit the person. That collaborative process helps shape which techniques are used over time.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow brief check-ins between in-depth sessions. It also offers ways to practise tools in real life and to bring exercises into day-to-day routines.
