Coriene Henry, BACP

Coriene Henry helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma and abuse, and grief. She also supports people exploring life purpose and building self-love. Coriene writes plainly and listens carefully so worries can be spoken about clearly and directly.

She creates a warm, non-judgemental space where thoughts and feelings can be shared. Coriene describes the relationship between client and counsellor as the most important part of therapy. She encourages honest conversation and small steps towards change.

Coriene practises person-centred counselling and uses practical tools to support the process. These might include Socratic questioning to gently challenge unhelpful ideas, drawing to express feelings, and metaphors to make sense of difficult experiences. Techniques are chosen with the person in mind.

Her way of working is collaborative. Sessions focus on what matters now and on building coping skills for day-to-day life. Coriene aims to empower people to find clearer direction and greater emotional balance.

Coriene holds BACP, which stands for the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She has five years of professional experience working in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English.

Approaches that guide online counselling

Coriene uses person-centred counselling, which focuses on understanding the person without judgement and following their pace. This approach helps people feel heard and encourages self-directed change. She also draws on practical tools such as Socratic questioning to examine unhelpful thoughts and gentle challenge to open up new perspectives. These techniques can help with anxiety, low mood, and patterns that keep repeating.

She may use creative aids like drawing and metaphor to help describe feelings that are hard to put into words. The choice of approaches is collaborative - Coriene works with each person to identify what fits their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they review what is working and adjust methods as therapy progresses.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer writing between sessions or want more flexible, brief contacts. These options make therapy easier to fit around work, family life, and travel.
