About Patience
She draws on a mix of approaches rather than one single method. That mix includes Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), client-centred work, cognitive behavioural techniques, mindfulness and narrative ideas. Sessions are conversational and tailored so each person’s life and goals shape the work together.
Patience is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She has 13 years of experience working with people on everyday pressures and more complex life events. Her background includes supporting people who face loss, adoption and foster-care questions, family-of-origin difficulties and body-image concerns.
Her way of working is respectful and curious. She encourages people to bring their whole selves, including humour and creative interests, into sessions. The focus is on building skills for coping, clearer thinking about problems, and practical steps that fit into a person’s life.

How her approaches shape online therapy
Patience draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centred work and cognitive behavioural techniques to guide sessions. ACT focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and choosing actions that match what matters to you, which can help when anger or avoidance get in the way. Client-centred work offers a respectful, non-judgemental space where the counsellor follows the person’s lead and supports them to find their own answers. Cognitive behavioural techniques break problems into thoughts, feelings and behaviours and then build practical steps to change unhelpful patterns.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Patience will talk with each person about what they hope to achieve, try methods that fit their goals, and adjust the plan as the work progresses. Clients help shape which techniques are kept and which are set aside.
The practical benefits of online therapy can include fitting sessions around work and family life, cutting travel time, and making it easier to keep regular appointments. The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. The focus is on making therapy manageable and useful within everyday routines.
