Cheryl Hunton

Cheryl Hunton is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and anger. She draws on five years of experience to offer calm, practical support. Cheryl aims to make sessions straightforward and welcoming for people who are unsure where to start.

Cheryl primarily uses a client-centred approach, which means conversations focus on what matters most to the person in front of her. She also uses ideas from psychodynamic work and practical techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy, tailoring the mix to each person’s needs. Sessions are conversational and paced to suit the individual.

In sessions she listens for patterns that make daily life harder, such as low motivation, recurring worry, or relationship friction. Cheryl helps people name those patterns and try small, manageable changes that fit their life. She also supports clients through grief, family difficulties, career strain and challenges linked to ADHD, trauma and chronic health issues.

Her training is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, listed as BACP. Cheryl presents herself as a warm and non-judgemental counsellor who aims to create a space where people can speak openly and think about next steps.

To begin, prospective clients follow the site process to match with her, complete a short questionnaire and then arrange sessions. Cheryl encourages anyone feeling daunted by therapy to recognise the courage in making that first contact.

Approaches you can expect in online counselling

Cheryl uses a client-centred way of working that keeps the conversation focused on the person's priorities and feelings. This approach helps when someone needs a listening space to make sense of what is happening in their life.

She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at unhelpful thoughts and small behaviour changes that can reduce worry, low mood and anger. CBT tools tend to be practical and can be used between sessions to support progress.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Cheryl will talk with each person about their goals, preferences and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as things change.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around a busy day, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also means someone can choose a quieter moment to talk without rearranging large parts of their schedule.
