About Mystica

Mystica Furey is a counsellor with 14 years of experience who helps people manage anger alongside stress, anxiety, addictions and trauma. She also supports people struggling with low self-esteem, depression, relationship and family concerns, grief, parenting pressures, career questions and major life changes. Her practice is sensitive to multicultural issues and to concerns such as paranoia, phobias, prejudice, discrimination and process addictions like gambling or exercise. Her approach is practical and person-focused. She uses talking, gentle challenge and goal-setting to help people notice patterns and try different responses. Sessions are shaped to the person in front of her rather than following a rigid plan. Mystica aims to create a respectful space where people can speak plainly about what angers or worries them. She draws on a mix of methods depending on need. Cognitive behavioural techniques help with thinking and behaviour patterns. Attachment-based ideas look at how early relationships influence current reactions. She also uses EMDR for trauma-focused work and solution-focused strategies for short-term goals. Mystica trained and practised in the UK and has worked abroad as well. Her 14 years of experience include supporting people through grief, compassion fatigue and recovery from addictive behaviours. She describes her style as compassionate, direct and tailored to each person. If someone wants to begin, she asks them to reflect on what they hope to change and what has already helped. That information shapes an initial plan and the next steps for the work together.

How therapeutic approaches work online with this counsellor

Mystica uses cognitive behavioural therapy to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try different behaviours; this can be useful for anger, anxiety and low mood. Attachment-based work looks at patterns from early relationships and how they affect current reactions; that helps when anger links to trust or closeness issues. She also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing for trauma-focused work to reduce the intensity of distressing memories.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss options and together decide which methods fit the person's goals, needs and preferences. That collaborative planning means techniques can be adjusted as progress is made.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking as the biography does not specify them here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work or family life, reduce travel time and allow brief check-ins between commitments. For some people being able to join from a quieter room or choosing not to be on camera helps them focus on the issues they want to work through. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt pacing, homework and practical tools so the work suits everyday life.
