Thomas Quayle

Thomas Quayle is a counsellor who uses a person-centred, warm approach to help people manage strong emotions and life stresses. He introduces a calm, non-judgemental atmosphere where someone can speak openly about anxiety, low mood, anger, addiction or relationship strain. Tom aims to help people feel steadier and regain more control over day-to-day life.

He combines practical talking therapy with recognised methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Sessions are shaped around each person’s goals and pace, with a focus on things that can change now rather than waiting for perfect conditions. Tom also draws on solution-focused ideas to identify small steps that add up.

With four years of professional experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), he brings recent clinical work to his practice. That background includes supporting people with trauma, addictions, sleep and eating concerns, and self-esteem problems. He also works with issues linked to attachment, abandonment and impulsivity.

Tom speaks English and is based in the United Kingdom. He accepts international clients as part of his practice and encourages people to consider therapy when they feel overwhelmed or stuck. He understands how daunting first steps can be and aims to make initial contacts straightforward and understandable.

To begin, a short matching questionnaire is used to connect people with him, followed by scheduling according to his availability. Sessions operate through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How Tom’s approaches translate to online therapy

Tom commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in his work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and supports taking small steps that match personal values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments to reduce anxiety, low mood and unhelpful behaviours.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Tom will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and together they decide which methods to try. He adapts the plan as the work progresses so it stays relevant to everyday life.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the available session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around family commitments, travel less, or have a shorter check-in when time is tight. It can also allow more choice about how and when to meet, helping therapy fit into a busy schedule rather than the other way around.
