Naomi Forkes , BACP

Naomi Forkes is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety and relationship strain. She works with individuals dealing with family concerns, self-esteem struggles and life changes. Naomi speaks plainly and aims to make early sessions feel manageable for someone nervous about starting therapy.

She believes each person knows their own story and brings strengths to the work. Naomi focuses on listening, helping clients notice patterns, and finding small, practical steps that fit day-to-day life. This can include improving communication, managing strong emotions or building confidence after difficult events.

With three years of professional experience she has supported people through separation, blended family tensions and caregiver stress. Naomi also offers help around attachment concerns, codependency and feelings of emptiness or guilt. She pays attention to how family of origin issues and past losses shape current choices.

Sessions aim to be straightforward and paced to the individual. Naomi helps people try new ways of coping, practice different responses, and reflect on what works. The emphasis is on useful changes that make daily life easier.

Naomi is a BACP counsellor working from the United Kingdom. She offers online sessions by video, phone, live chat and text messaging to suit different needs and schedules. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and book according to therapist availability.

How Naomi uses therapeutic approaches online

Naomi works with evidence-based techniques that help people notice patterns and try different ways of responding. One common approach she uses helps people recognise unhelpful thoughts and test them against everyday reality, which can ease anxiety and low mood by changing what people do and think. Another approach focuses on attachment and relational patterns to help people understand how past relationships shape current reactions and build more satisfying ways of connecting.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Naomi discusses options with each person and chooses methods that match their goals, needs and preferences. This collaborative process helps people feel involved in planning their therapy rather than being given a fixed protocol.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different circumstances. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a fuller interaction is helpful. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Text and chat sessions give a shorter, flexible way to reflect between other commitments. These formats aim to make counselling more accessible and fit around daily life.
