Cherine Ennis, BACP

Cherine Ennis works from a client-centred approach combined with cognitive behavioural techniques. She aims to create a warm, respectful space where people can talk through worries and begin to feel steadier. Cherine holds BACP and has six years' experience as a counsellor based in the United Kingdom.

Cherine supports people with common concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress and grief. She also helps those coping with life changes, parenting pressures, eating and intimacy-related issues, and problems linked to trauma and abuse. Her practice includes work around self-esteem, anger, addictions and relationship or family difficulties.

Her style is straightforward and collaborative. Sessions tend to focus on helping people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try small changes that make daily life easier. She draws on client-centred listening to build trust and then uses cognitive behavioural ideas to test new ways of thinking and behaving.

Cherine has experience working with concerns including panic attacks, postpartum depression, body image and attachment issues. She also brings a focus on complicated feelings like shame, guilt and abandonment. That experience shapes how she plans practical steps alongside emotional support.

People who choose Cherine will find a counsellor who values respect and steady progress. She works to help people discover their own strengths and to follow through with a plan that fits their life. Sessions are offered in English and she is available to work with international clients.

How client-centred and CBT approaches work online

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening closely and creating a respectful space where people feel heard. It helps people explore their feelings at their own pace and identify what matters to them. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behaviour. It helps people try small changes and test whether different ways of thinking make daily life feel easier.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Cherine will discuss goals and preferences together and suggest a mix of client-centred listening and CBT techniques that fits the person's needs. Decisions about methods are collaborative and can change as progress is made.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people work face to face from wherever is easiest. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins or more time to reflect between messages. These formats help people fit therapy into busy lives and maintain continuity across locations.
