Cheryl McCabe

Cheryl McCabe is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years of formal counselling experience and a much longer history of supporting people with their mental health. She works in a gentle, conversational way and aims to make the first steps into therapy as straightforward as possible.

Her style is interactive and down to earth. She will ask questions when needed and allow quiet moments when space for thinking feels right. She brings a sense of humour and a real, human presence into sessions.

Cheryl uses creativity when words are not enough and is aware of how different parts of a person can hold different feelings and needs. She welcomes all parts of a person and pays attention to trauma and how past hurts can affect day-to-day life.

People come to her for help with stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem and relationship concerns. She also supports those coping with grief, life changes, intimacy-related worries, ADHD and trauma or abuse. Cheryl works with issues linked to body image, caregiver strain, chronic illness and communication problems among others.

She believes clients are the experts in their own stories and that therapy is a shared process. Her aim is to walk alongside people as they make sense of their inner and outer worlds. Prospective clients are invited to ask questions before they start.

How Cheryl’s Client-Centred Way Fits Online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely, offering genuine empathy and treating the person as the expert in their own life. This approach helps people who are struggling with stress, low self-esteem, relationship concerns or grief by creating a supportive space to talk through difficulties. It also allows room for creativity when words alone do not feel enough.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative task. Cheryl will work with each person to decide which ways of working feel most helpful, checking in about goals and preferences as therapy progresses. This means the approach can shift if different tools or more creative methods would be useful.

The practical benefits of online work can include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Because the original biography does not list specific session formats, please confirm which formats are offered before booking. Registered or accredited professionals often find online sessions make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to arrange shorter check-ins when life is hectic.
