About Cheryl

Cheryl Ennis works on stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and related issues using a person-centred approach and practical therapies. She is a BACP counsellor with nine years' experience supporting people with depression, grief, addictions and self-esteem concerns.

Cheryl focuses on helping people understand what they are experiencing and find workable ways forward. She listens to the problem and uses person-centred counselling to create space for people to talk through feelings. When useful she draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to spot and change unhelpful thinking patterns.

Her practice covers a wide range of concerns including parenting strain, sleep and eating difficulties, anger, intimacy-related issues and career stress. Cheryl also works with issues such as body image, communication problems, guilt and shame, panic attacks and social anxiety. She offers coaching-style support for people needing practical steps alongside counselling.

In sessions Cheryl aims to identify barriers to wellbeing and develop clear, realistic strategies. This can include emotion-focused work to improve connection with feelings, and motivational interviewing to help people move towards change. Her approach stays focused on what the person wants to achieve and on practical next steps.

Cheryl has spent nine years building experience with a broad adult client group across the United Kingdom. She welcomes people who want to address life changes, cope with loss or reduce overwhelming thoughts. To begin she asks people to describe their main concerns and their goals for counselling so the first session can be used effectively.

Therapeutic approaches used in remote counselling

Attachment-based work looks at how early patterns of relating affect current relationships and emotional responses; it can help when relationship difficulties or trust issues are central to the problem. Client-centred counselling offers a supportive space where the person directs the pace and topics, which can help when someone needs time to clarify their feelings. Cognitive behavioural therapy focuses on identifying thought patterns and developing practical skills to reduce anxiety or low mood.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what has helped before. Together they decide which combination of approaches to try and review progress as therapy continues.

Practical benefits of remote counselling include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. If you need details about session formats, please confirm the exact options before booking, as the biography does not list them. Many people find remote sessions useful for shorter check-ins, quieter conversations or regular appointments that fit around work and family commitments.
