About Cheryl

Cheryl Freedman works with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, depression and coping with life changes. She uses a person-centred approach and has four years of professional experience. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).

Cheryl uses person-centred counselling to help people talk through what matters to them. That means sessions focus on the client’s experience and strengths. Cheryl encourages people to find their own solutions at a pace they are comfortable with.

She has worked in private practice and with individuals facing trauma, separation and ongoing family issues. Cheryl also supports people dealing with abandonment, adoption and foster care concerns, and attachment difficulties. She has experience with autism and Asperger syndrome related concerns, and with life changes such as divorce and separation.

Other areas Cheryl covers include caregiver stress, chronic illness and disability, body image, codependency and communication problems. She also addresses control and commitment issues, feelings of emptiness, and family of origin matters. Sessions look at practical coping strategies alongside exploring underlying patterns.

Cheryl offers one-to-one counselling in English and practices within the United Kingdom. Her approach aims to help people clarify what they want to change and to build on their strengths. To start, people are invited to use the site’s matching process and arrange an initial session.

How Cheryl uses person-centred practice online

Cheryl’s main approach is person-centred counselling. This method focuses on the client’s own perspective, helping them reflect on feelings and choices and draw on their strengths. It is often used for anxiety, depression and relationship concerns.

She also works with practical, evidence-based techniques to support coping with life changes and stress. These techniques aim to build everyday skills for managing difficult feelings and improving communication within relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Cheryl will discuss different ways of working with the client and agree together which fits best with their needs and goals. This collaborative process helps shape what happens in sessions over time.

The biography does not specify session formats here, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals often use remote sessions to maintain regular contact and practical momentum between meetings.
