About Patricia
Patricia Telfer is a counsellor who aims to help parents and individuals facing stress and relationship strain. She listens without judgment and takes a straightforward, honest approach. Patricia keeps sessions focused so people can make practical steps forward. Her manner is down-to-earth, and she encourages clients to find their own strengths.
With three years of professional experience, Patricia offers support for anxiety, depression and grief. She also works with sleeping problems, anger and life changes that can feel overwhelming. Parenting concerns and family relationships are part of her focus, as are self-esteem, control issues and building self-love.
Patricia uses a client-centred way of working. That means she follows the person’s pace and priorities, giving space to be heard and understood. In sessions she aims to help clients clarify thoughts, name feelings and choose practical next steps.
Some people come for a short series of sessions to gain clarity and plan ahead. Others stay longer while they work through deeper patterns and learn new ways of coping. Patricia describes her style as honest and no-nonsense, and she seeks to empower clients so they can manage challenges after therapy ends.
She works in English and practises in the United Kingdom. If you think this style might suit you, follow the Start Therapy button to complete a short questionnaire and arrange an initial session.
How client-centred work fits with online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and following the person’s lead. In practice this means the therapist reflects what the client says, helps people name their feelings and supports them to decide what to try next. It often suits issues like anxiety, low self-esteem, grief and relationship stress where being heard matters more than advice.Patricia aims to work collaboratively to find the best approach. She will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then adapt the sessions to fit those needs. Finding the right style is part of the process rather than a one-time choice, and decisions are made together.
If you are considering online work, please confirm the available session options before booking. Many people choose remote sessions because they fit into busy days, reduce travel time and make it easier to keep regular appointments. Online sessions can also allow shorter check-ins when time is limited or offer a way to work without needing to be on camera for every meeting. Ask about current formats when you complete the short matching questionnaire so arrangements can be made to suit your routine.
