Oriana Wallace-Johnson, BACP

Oriana Wallace-Johnson brings four years of counselling experience in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP registration, and she frames sessions around listening and steady support. Oriana writes in clear, simple terms and aims to make the first steps less daunting for people seeking help.

She focuses on everyday struggles such as stress, anxiety and low mood. She also helps people dealing with trauma and abuse, self-esteem issues, sleep problems and grief. Parenting pressures and career worries are part of her caseload, along with intimacy-related concerns and relationship difficulties.

Oriana uses a client-centred style that keeps the person’s priorities at the centre of the work. In practice this means she offers time to talk, reflects what she hears, and helps clients make sense of their feelings. Sessions are paced to match what each person needs, not a fixed agenda.

People often come with overlapping problems, such as chronic illness or pain that affects mood, financial stress that harms sleep, or past abandonment that shapes relationships. Oriana helps people untangle these links and find practical ways to cope day to day. She encourages small, manageable steps rather than sudden change.

Her approach suits people who want a calm, non-judgemental space to talk things through. She works in English and delivers sessions online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging. To begin, a short matching questionnaire helps identify the right fit and the next steps for scheduling.

How client-centred therapy works online

Client-centred therapy focuses on the person rather than a fixed treatment plan. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what they hear and helps the person name feelings and priorities. This approach can be helpful for anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties and adjusting after loss or trauma.

Working online does not mean the process changes - the therapist still follows the client's lead. Together they decide what matters most and try different ways to cope or see situations differently. That collaborative process helps shape goals and the pace of work so it fits each person's needs and preferences.

Online sessions can take place by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, which offers flexible options for different situations. Video calls allow face-to-face contact and visual cues. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer typing or want brief, frequent support between longer sessions. These options make counselling easier to fit around work, parenting and other commitments.
