Moneaque Teape

Moneaque Teape is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger and major life changes. She supports those dealing with depression, relationship strain, addictions and grief. She also works with concerns such as self-esteem, sleep and eating difficulties, ADHD and career uncertainty.

Moneaque describes herself as an integrative counsellor. That means she draws on different therapies and tailors them to what each person needs. Sessions focus on simple, practical steps and on talking through whatever is most pressing for the client. Conversations aim to reduce worry and help people move toward a future they want.

She is a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which means she works in line with an ethical framework. Moneaque has nine years of experience working with people facing a wide range of life stresses, including trauma, grief and compassion fatigue. Her background also includes supporting people with addiction and first responder issues.

In sessions she offers a calm, steady presence and invites people to be open about difficult feelings. She uses approaches such as client-centred work, cognitive behavioural techniques and solution-focused tasks when they fit the situation. The focus is on clear goals and practical changes rather than jargon.

People who choose her often want someone who listens without rushing and who helps them find small steps forward. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to her availability.

How her approaches work well online

Moneaque uses client-centred work to keep sessions focused on the person and their priorities. This approach means conversations are led by what the client brings, helping build trust and clearer goals. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) provides practical tools to change unhelpful thinking and habits, which can be rehearsed and tracked between sessions. Motivational interviewing supports people who want to change addictive patterns by exploring their own reasons and readiness for change.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. She will work collaboratively to try methods that fit a client's needs and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made. Clients and therapist decide together what helps most, whether that is exploring stories from the past or setting small, doable tasks for the week.

The original profile does not specify which session formats are used, so please confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around daily life, for example by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, or enabling sessions during lunch breaks or between appointments. Many people find these practical benefits help them stay consistent with counselling while juggling other commitments.
