Cherena Morlese , BACP

Cherena Morlese is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who focuses on women's issues among many other concerns. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk through stress, anxiety, grief, relationship strain and other life challenges. Cherena aims to help clients find practical steps forward and build everyday coping skills.

She uses a person-centred style that puts the client's priorities first. That means sessions are shaped around what matters most to the individual. Cherena also draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to help spot and change unhelpful thinking patterns and on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to support values-based action.

Attachment-based work features when relational history affects current feelings and behaviour. Jungian ideas may be used to notice deeper patterns and personal meaning. Together these approaches are used to support issues such as addictions, eating and sleeping problems, parenting strain, compassion fatigue and recovery after trauma and abuse.

Cherena has nine years of professional experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. Practical options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging.

To begin, a person chooses the Start Therapy button, completes a short matching questionnaire and then books sessions according to the available schedule. Cherena aims to work collaboratively so clients feel heard and can take clear steps towards their goals.

How Cherena’s approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small actions that match those values, which is useful for depression, anxiety and life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) identifies unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and teaches practical techniques to change them. This approach is often helpful for anxiety, stress, sleep problems and low mood.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current responses and relationships. It can help when past losses, abandonment or attachment issues shape present-day trust and closeness.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Cherena will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then choose methods together. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions to what actually feels useful for the client.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility. Video calls let people have face-to-face conversation from different locations. Phone sessions can be a better fit when bandwidth is low or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging support shorter updates or ongoing check-ins without requiring scheduled video time. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving and other commitments.
