Rosie Hilditch , NCPS

Rosie Hilditch is a UK-based counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, disordered eating and issues around self-esteem. She also supports matters linked to ADHD, autism, sexuality and women's issues. Rosie writes simply and listens closely to what each person brings to sessions.

Rosie trained in the person-centred approach, listed as Client-Centred Therapy, which means she begins by hearing each person's experience. She aims to create a space where someone can speak without judgement and be helped to find their own solutions. Rosie may also use techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy and mindfulness when these suit a person's goals.

Before counselling, Rosie worked as a teacher. That background gives her direct experience of stressful jobs, burnout and the pressures of workplace life. She brings that practical understanding into conversations about career stress and coping with life changes.

Rosie has three years of counselling experience and holds the NCPS credential. She has worked with individuals, teenagers and couples and has supported people with a range of additional needs, including ADHD and autism. She has particular interest in helping women with late or undiagnosed ADHD.

In sessions Rosie balances listening with gentle challenge. She says she will not just sit back and nod but will help people set and work towards therapy goals. Her style aims to be warm, clear and focused on what will make a real difference in day-to-day life.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Rosie uses a person-centred approach that prioritises listening and understanding someone’s perspective. This approach helps when people need to feel heard, sort through values and decide on goals for change.

She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and trying new ways of responding. CBT techniques can be useful for anxiety, low mood and patterns around eating or self-esteem.

Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the work. Rosie will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then agree a plan together. That collaborative way of working helps tailor sessions to immediate problems and longer term aims.

Online therapy offers practical options to fit day-to-day life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that feels important. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier to fit around work or childcare. Live chat and text messaging suit short check-ins, journalling between sessions or times when writing feels easier than speaking. These formats make it simpler to keep therapy consistent while fitting around other commitments.
