Oriana Wallace-Johnson, BACP

Oriana Wallace-Johnson is a counsellor registered with BACP who has four years of practical experience in the United Kingdom. She offers weekend morning appointments and aims to make the first step into therapy as simple as possible. Her approach is grounded in listening and clear, respectful conversation.

Oriana focuses on stress, anxiety and depression. She also helps people who are dealing with trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, motivation struggles and confidence issues. She makes space for clients to say what they need to say without judgement and works at the client’s pace.

In sessions she uses client-centred principles to keep the work focused on the person in front of her. That means listening carefully, reflecting what she hears, and asking practical questions to help people notice patterns and options. The work often involves talking through day-to-day problems, testing new ways of responding, and building small, steady changes.

Oriana also supports people with relationship concerns, grief, intimacy-related issues and sleeping difficulties. Additional areas she attends to include fertility issues, abandonment, chronic illness and pain, infidelity, jealousy, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. She aims to address both immediate worries and longer-term concerns.

Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling a time that suits you. Sessions are organised through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and session details are confirmed when you book.

Client-centred ways to work online

Client-Centred Therapy emphasises listening and presence. The counsellor reflects what the client says and uses questions to help people notice their own thoughts and feelings. This approach can help with anxiety, low mood, relationship worries and issues like shame or jealousy by making space to understand what matters most.

Sessions built around listening often involve simple, steady steps. The therapist and client decide together what to focus on, and they try out small changes between sessions. Finding the right approach is part of the work, and Oriana will collaborate with you to match methods to your needs, goals and preferences rather than imposing a single plan.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Many people find online work helpful because it can fit around work, family or mobility needs, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time on busy days. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt conversations for remote sessions so they still feel practical and focused.
