Bethan Heap, NCPS

Bethan Heap helps people who are overwhelmed, exhausted or unsure who they are right now. She meets clients with curiosity and calm. Sessions are warm and down-to-earth, not bossy or clinical. Bethan listens for what lies beneath the usual answers. She pays attention to feelings, thoughts and what the body is doing. If words are hard, she may invite simple creative tools like metaphor or drawing to make things easier to talk about. Her work is collaborative. Bethan uses person-centred ways of working alongside emotionally-focused and somatic ideas. She also draws on parts-based thinking to help different aspects of someone’s experience be understood and heard. Clients often come for help with anxiety, stress, low mood, relationship patterns, grief, parenting strains, or big life changes. She also supports people dealing with issues such as attachment wounds, body image concerns, shame, loneliness, and postpartum depression. Bethan trained in psychotherapy and counselling to master's level and holds a BSc in Psychology. Her listed credential is NCPS. She has three years of professional experience and practises from the United Kingdom. Sessions aim to slow things down, build trust and make small shifts feel possible. Bethan stays straightforward and gently curious, helping people reconnect with parts of themselves they have had to quieten or carry alone.

How Bethan's approaches work online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. Online work can help people notice attachment responses and try new ways of relating to themselves and others. Client-Centred Therapy centres on the person’s experience and choices. In remote sessions the therapist mirrors and reflects what matters to the client so they feel understood and heard. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people identify, name and shift core emotions that keep patterns repeating. Online sessions can guide focused emotional work and track changes over time.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. Bethan will talk with each person about what they hope to change and which methods feel most useful. Together they decide whether to focus more on emotions, body awareness or relational patterns and adapt as things evolve.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow visual connection for relational work, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between longer sessions. These formats make it simpler to fit therapy around work, parenting and daily life while still engaging in meaningful therapeutic work with registered or accredited professionals.
