Shanice Wright, BACP

Shanice Wright helps people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood, or relationship strain find steady ground. She greets clients with a calm, non-judgemental approach and aims to make sessions feel manageable and clear. Shanice introduces practical steps and conversational reflection so parents and busy adults can fit therapy into their lives.

She uses client-centred work to put the person's experience at the centre of each session. Cognitive behavioural ideas are used to break down unhelpful thinking and try out new behaviours. She also draws on psychodynamic perspectives to look at patterns that repeat over time and where they might come from.

Shanice has four years of professional experience and holds BACP accreditation, which she uses to guide ethical practice. Her background includes supporting people coping with trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related concerns, sleep and eating difficulties, anger, career stress and parenting pressures.

Sessions are conversational and task-focused when useful. Clients should expect a mix of listening, gentle challenge and practical tools to try between sessions. Shanice aims to help people notice small changes that add up to better day-to-day coping.

She offers a straightforward pathway into therapy and will work with each person to set goals, review progress and adapt methods as needs change. Appointments are arranged around the client’s schedule and paced to suit how quickly someone wants to move.

How these approaches work for online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy prioritises the person's own views and experiences. The therapist listens closely and helps reflect what is important, which can support people facing anxiety, low mood or relationship worries. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, breaks down difficult thoughts and behaviours into small parts and focuses on simple experiments to change how someone feels and acts. It often suits stress, sleep or eating problems and practical day-to-day difficulties.

Choosing an approach is a shared process. Shanice will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That may mean trying CBT tools for a while, then shifting to more reflective psychodynamic work to understand repeating patterns, or mixing elements depending on what helps most.

Online sessions give flexibility for busy schedules and varied needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation from wherever a client is located, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier between commitments, and live chat or text messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it practical to keep therapy consistent while fitting around work, family or travel.
