Ashleigh Coleman , BACP

Ashleigh Coleman is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship problems, grief, parenting challenges and life changes. She also supports people dealing with trauma, anger, sleep difficulties, low self-esteem, career questions and ADHD-related concerns. Ashleigh uses a practical, down-to-earth style and aims to help people get clearer about what matters to them.

Ashleigh is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She brings three years of experience to her work and adapts her approach to each person she meets. Sessions may focus on processing a difficult event, looking at how the past affects the present, or learning new tools to manage mood and stress.

In conversation she gives time and space so people can talk at their own pace. She listens without judgement and encourages people to set concrete goals for their counselling. That helps make sessions feel focused and purposeful.

People who come to Ashleigh can expect straightforward, warm support that balances emotional understanding with practical steps. She aims to help clients build skills they can use outside sessions, such as coping strategies for anxious moments or clearer ways to communicate in relationships.

Ashleigh works with adults across a wide range of concerns, including caregiving stress, chronic illness, body image, commitment and attachment issues. She tailors each conversation to the person in front of her and reviews progress as goals change.

Client-centred care online and practical access

Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the centre of each session. The therapist listens closely, reflects what they hear and follows the pace set by the client. This approach helps when someone needs to be heard, to make sense of their feelings, or to work through relationship and identity questions.

Ashleigh adapts sessions to each person's needs, combining open listening with practical ideas. Together they will review goals and choose ways of working that fit the person's preferences and daily life. Finding the right approach is a shared process and adjustments are made as therapy progresses.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when helpful. Phone sessions can be easier when internet bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging suit shorter check-ins or when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments while keeping the focus on meaningful progress.
