Mary Honeyball

Mary Honeyball is a counsellor who uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy to help people manage difficult feelings and life changes. She brings 20 years of experience to sessions and aims to create an open space for people to speak honestly about what worries them. Mary works with issues such as stress, anxiety, low self‑esteem and depression, and she also supports people with grief and relationship concerns.

In her work she focuses on practical ways to notice thoughts and feelings without being overwhelmed by them. That can mean learning small actions that match a person’s values, or finding new ways to relate to painful memories and relationship patterns. She also helps with sleep and eating difficulties, seasonal affective disorder, parenting strain, and coping with career transitions.

Mary listens with a calm, non‑judgemental style and aims to help people feel understood. Together she and the client set goals and try out steps that feel doable. The approach is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.

Over two decades of practice have given her experience across trauma and compassion fatigue as well as intimacy related concerns and anger. She explains ideas simply and keeps sessions focused on what will help day to day. If someone prefers clear practical tools rather than jargon, she structures sessions around that preference.

To start, people answer a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on the therapist’s availability. Fees vary with location and a subscription model is used that can be cancelled at any time.

Using ACT and Attachment ideas in online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting swept away, and supports taking small, values‑guided actions even when emotions are strong. That approach can help with anxiety, depression, anger and coping with life changes. Attachment‑based work looks at how early relationship patterns show up now and aims to change unhelpful interaction habits; it is often useful for relationship and intimacy related concerns. Client‑centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding so people feel heard and can find their own solutions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work and the therapist will help decide what fits best. She will discuss goals, preferences and how different methods might help, then try out ideas together. The process is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.

Specific session formats are not listed here, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make fitting sessions into a busy life easier by reducing travel and allowing appointments during work breaks or from quieter locations. It also lets people choose shorter or more frequent check‑ins when that suits their goals. Registered or accredited professionals often use online sessions to offer consistent support without requiring a commute.
