Chloe Press , BACP

Chloe Press is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions and relationship concerns. She also supports people with low self-esteem, depression, grief and intimacy-related difficulties. Chloe works with issues around trauma and abuse, anger, career changes and coping with life transitions. She lists women's issues among her areas of focus.

Chloe practises in a person-centred way, keeping the conversation focused on the person's needs. Sessions aim to be non-judgemental and respectful. She encourages clients to find their own solutions while offering guidance and practical tools.

Her approach draws on emotionally-focused ideas to look at how feelings affect relationships and connection. Trauma-focused work is used when past events continue to cause distress. This combination supports people who have experienced abuse, addiction or difficult losses.

Chloe completed a degree in counselling and psychotherapy and went on to study for a Master of Arts in Psychology. She holds BACP accreditation, which is recorded as BACP. She describes warmth, understanding and compassion as central to her work.

Sessions are tailored to each person and the plan evolves as progress is made. Chloe emphasises practical steps alongside talking, so people leave with clear coping strategies. She invites anyone considering therapy to take the first step and complete the brief matching questionnaire to begin.

How Chloe's approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's own experience and aims to create a respectful, non-judgemental space where the client leads the conversation. It helps with stress, low self-esteem and life decisions by prioritising the client's perspective.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at how emotions shape relationships and connection. It is useful for people who want to understand patterns in their close relationships and improve emotional responses.

Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on the impact of past events and ways to reduce their ongoing hold. This work can support people recovering from abuse, addiction or significant losses.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process and Chloe works collaboratively to find the best fit. She will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then adapt methods as the work progresses.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls are good for a near face-to-face conversation. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a short break at work. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while fitting it around everyday life.
