About Angela
Angela Farrelly is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and difficulties coping with life changes. Angela also supports clients with addiction concerns, relationship and family matters, grief, sleeping and eating difficulties, and issues linked to ADHD and bipolar.
She uses clear, practical conversation to help people notice what matters to them. Angela values the idea that a person knows their own story and already carries strengths to draw on. Sessions tend to focus on small, usable steps people can take between meetings.
Her clinical approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to look at thoughts and behaviours that keep someone stuck. She also uses Attachment-Based and Client-Centred ways of working to explore relational patterns and personal experience. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy skills are offered where emotion regulation and distress tolerance are needed.
Angela pays attention to how past hurt or shame can affect present choices. She talks through practical ways to manage difficult feelings and to rebuild steady routines, for example around sleep, eating and work. Parents and carers can bring concerns about parenting strain and caregiver stress.
People usually find the work is straightforward and focused on changing small habits and ways of thinking. She asks questions, reflects back what she hears and tries different techniques until something fits. To begin, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first session.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to identify what matters to them and to take small actions in that direction. It is often used when someone is dealing with persistent negative thoughts or stuck patterns. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and teaches straightforward tools to change unhelpful reactions. These approaches can suit anxiety, low mood, and coping with life changes. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what feels most useful. Together they will try methods and adjust the plan based on how things go, so the approach fits the person rather than the other way round. The biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when a full-length session is not needed. Some people prefer not being on camera, while others find video better for reading expression; the therapist can discuss what works best for the client.Areas of expertise
