Ross Herron, BACP

Ross Herron is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 13 years of experience in helping people manage life’s hard moments. He works with stress, anxiety, grief and depression, and supports people facing relationship and family tensions. Ross believes clients know their own stories and brings a steady, respectful presence to sessions.

He uses practical tools rather than jargon. Conversations focus on what is happening now and what small steps might make life more manageable. He also helps with anger, intimacy concerns, self-esteem and career questions. Ross pays attention to how relationships shape feelings and behaviour.

His background includes approaches that centre on emotions and attachment. That helps when patterns in close relationships keep repeating. He also draws on solution-focused ideas to find useful next steps quickly.

Sessions aim to be straightforward and collaborative. Ross encourages people to notice strengths and to try new ways of handling familiar problems. He offers coaching-style support when someone wants clearer goals or help making decisions.

People who choose his way of working usually want practical change and clearer emotional understanding. Ross welcomes conversations about communication, control issues, forgiveness and finding life purpose. If someone is ready to take a step, he helps turn that intention into a plan.

How his approaches work online

Attachment-Based work looks at how close relationships shape feelings and behaviour, helping people understand repeating patterns and feel safer in relationships. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s own experience, offering a non-judgemental space where someone can be heard and make sense of their feelings. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people name and work with strong emotions so they can change painful interaction cycles and feel more connected.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Ross treats finding the best fit as collaborative - he will listen to a person’s goals and try different ways of working until something feels useful. This means therapy can be adapted as needs change over time.

Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful when visual connection helps emotional work, phone calls are good when bandwidth is limited, and text or chat can suit quick check-ins or times when typing feels easier. These options help people fit sessions around work, family and travel while still having paced, focused support from a registered or accredited professional.
