About Ebi

Ebi Mensah is a counsellor who works from a person-centred base and blends other approaches to meet people where they are. She welcomes conversations about stress, anxiety, parenting and family concerns, and the daily pressures that can make life feel unmanageable.

She speaks English and brings five years' practice experience in the United Kingdom, holding BACP registration. Her background as a British African informs her awareness of cultural differences and how values and beliefs can affect decisions and relationships.

In sessions she aims to be warm and present, offering a space to talk through worries and to think about practical next steps. She supports people tackling low mood, overthinking, setting boundaries, and difficult relationship patterns such as ghosting or gaslighting.

Her work also includes helping people with career transitions, making fresh starts, and exploring the effects of loss or trauma. She uses attachment ideas and psychoeducation to increase understanding, while also drawing on cognitive and relational methods when useful.

She has worked with counsellors in training on the shift from study into practice, and she notes that progress depends on the person's active engagement. New clients begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and then arranging sessions according to mutual scheduling.

Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and international clients are accepted. Prospective clients are advised to confirm current session options before booking.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early connections shape current relationships and emotional patterns. It helps people understand attachment worries like abandonment or difficulty trusting others and can guide clearer ways of relating to partners and family members.

Client-Centred Therapy places the person and their experience at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens without judgement, reflects what she hears and helps people make their own choices about next steps. This approach suits those who want a supportive space to explore feelings and work through decisions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour. It offers practical tools to challenge unhelpful thinking, manage anxiety and reduce panic symptoms, and is often used alongside other approaches when practical skills are wanted.

Choosing an approach is a joint process. The counsellor will talk through options and tailor methods to the person's needs, goals and preferences. Clients are invited to try things and give feedback so the work can be adjusted as needed.

If you are considering online therapy, check which session types are on offer before booking because the profile does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family life, reduce travel time and allow more flexible scheduling such as early or late appointments. It can also make some check-ins shorter or simpler, for example via an audio conversation if that suits a busy day. Registered professionals will discuss what will work best for practical needs and goals.

Before you get in touch

  • Jot down what is happening at home and what you would most like to be different.
