About Adrian
Adrian Robson offers a calm, non-judgemental presence for people wrestling with parenting stress, relationship strain, grief, anxiety and life changes. He presents himself simply and directly, making space for whatever feels difficult and helping clients find clearer footing. Adrian is identified by his BACP credential, which appears in his professional profile.
He draws on a person-centred way of working that foregrounds the relationship between counsellor and client. That means listening carefully, reflecting back what is said, and helping people notice their own strengths and choices. Cognitive behavioural ideas are woven in when helpful to make sense of thinking and behaviour patterns.
Adrian also brings a long background in physical health and somatic bodywork. He pays attention to how feelings and stresses can show up in the body, and sometimes invites gentle awareness of bodily sensations as part of the work. This can help people feel more grounded and integrated.
The approach is collaborative and paced to the individual. Adrian aims to be honest and warm, offering challenge when it supports growth but otherwise following the client’s lead. He emphasises steady, realistic change rather than quick fixes.
Across 17 years of practice he has supported people through depression, trauma, parenting concerns, bereavement, workplace stress and long-term health challenges. He welcomes conversations in English and works with clients from the United Kingdom and beyond.
How Adrian blends talking, thinking and body‑based work online
Adrian uses a person-centred foundation alongside cognitive behavioural ideas and somatic awareness. Person-centred work focuses on listening, reflecting and building a supportive relationship so people can find their own answers. Cognitive behavioural approaches look at the connections between thoughts, feelings and actions to identify patterns that may be unhelpful and try practical, small experiments to change them. Somatic attention brings gentle awareness to bodily sensations and how emotions might show up physically, which can help people notice tension and regulation strategies.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapy process. Adrian treats this as a collaborative conversation, tailoring his methods to each person’s goals, preferences and pace. He will discuss what feels useful and adjust the balance of talking, practical exercises and bodily awareness as work progresses.
If you are considering online work, confirm the current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy family life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check‑ins when needed. It also lets people access a therapist from different locations. Adrian will talk through the practicalities and help arrange a pattern of sessions that fits your routine.
