Angela Farrelly , BACP

Angela Farrelly is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. She works with clients facing changes in life, addiction concerns, grief and relationship strain. Angela values a practical, respectful approach and encourages people to recognise their own strengths.

She uses clear, everyday language in sessions and focuses on what people want to change. Angela sees clients as experts in their own stories and helps them build skills for day-to-day coping. She encourages small steps that add up to meaningful change.

Her background includes four years of professional practice and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That experience has included supporting people through trauma, parenting stress, career worries and sleep or eating concerns.

Angela draws on a mix of approaches when working with someone. She blends acceptance and commitment ideas with cognitive tools and emotion-focused listening to suit each person. Sessions aim to be collaborative, with the person deciding priorities and pace.

Practical matters such as managing anger, addressing compassion fatigue, or coping with long-term health issues are worked through step by step. Angela also supports LGBT clients, people with ADHD and those affected by attachment or abandonment worries. Her style is warm, steady and focused on real-life change.

Online approaches that meet you where you are

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviours that keep problems alive and practising different ways of thinking and acting. It often helps with stress, sleep, eating and mood concerns.

Angela works collaboratively to find the best approach for each person. She will discuss options, try techniques together and adjust methods based on what the client finds most useful. This means the plan can change as goals and needs become clearer.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to fit different lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits people who prefer typing and messages work for short check-ins between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily routines.
