Monique Campling, BACP

Monique Campling helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship worry and life changes. She supports those facing grief, trauma, eating or sleeping difficulties, anger and compassion fatigue. She also addresses concerns such as body image, abandonment, attachment issues and feelings of emptiness.

Monique brings three years' experience and works from a BACP registration. She offers a calm and empathetic atmosphere where people can talk honestly about what feels hard. Sessions focus on simple, practical steps rather than jargon or lengthy theory.

Her approach helps people notice how thoughts, feelings and behaviour interact. That understanding is used to build an action plan for change. Work may include trying new day-to-day habits, learning ways to manage strong emotions, and practising mindful awareness.

Monique draws on evidence-informed methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Client-Centred techniques. She adapts these to the person in front of her and to the issue being worked on. The aim is to help someone move from surviving to functioning with more purpose and ease.

Sessions can suit people who want straightforward strategies and emotional support together. Monique accepts international clients and conducts therapy in English. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and sessions are scheduled according to availability.

How Monique’s approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, low mood and difficulties that come with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches practical skills to change patterns that maintain distress. This approach often includes simple exercises to try between sessions. Client-Centred Therapy prioritises a warm, non-judgemental relationship and gives people space to make sense of their experience at their own pace.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences and what has or hasn't worked before. Together they will try methods that fit the situation and adjust the plan as needed in a collaborative way.

Online sessions offer flexibility. Video calls are useful for a face-to-face feel and full discussion. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quicker check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins, written reflection and people who prefer not to use voice. These options make it simpler to arrange regular appointments around work, family and travel.
