About Angela

Angela Garlick works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, relationship problems, grief and loss, depression and parenting concerns. She uses a person-centred style that encourages people to speak openly and be heard without judgement. Angela is a member of the BACP and has four years of professional experience.

She offers short, clear sessions where the focus is on what the person wants to change. Conversations look at current problems and how they affect day-to-day life. Practical steps and coping ideas are discussed alongside listening to feelings and experiences.

Angela draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to identify patterns of thinking and behaviour that keep problems going. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas are used to help people notice what matters to them and make small changes that match those values.

Mindfulness practices are introduced to help with concentration, low mood and sleep difficulties. She also uses psychodynamic ideas to look at longer-standing relationship patterns and early influences that shape current responses.

Sessions are conducted in English and follow professional standards set by the BACP. The therapist encourages people to bring specific issues such as ADHD-related coping, anger, self-esteem or work stress, and to set practical goals for therapy.

How her approaches are used in online counselling

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on actions that matter to them, which can be useful for anxiety, low mood and coping with change. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect and provides practical strategies to reduce symptoms and break unhelpful patterns.

Client-Centred Therapy means sessions concentrate on listening and reflecting what the person says, giving space to clarify feelings and priorities. Together the counsellor and client decide which methods to try and adapt them as work progresses. This is a collaborative way of finding what fits the person’s needs and goals.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into daily life, for example by saving travel time, allowing a shorter check-in during a work break, or avoiding the need to be on camera. Registered or accredited professionals can use these practical advantages to help maintain continuity of care and make sessions more manageable alongside everyday commitments.
