About Angela

Angela Mathews trained as a counsellor and holds the NCPS credential. She brings eight years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. Angela focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain and grief.

She also supports those working on self-esteem, motivation and coping with life changes. Her approach aims to make the room feel calm and straightforward. She uses client-centred therapy to listen and follow each person's priorities.

She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at thoughts and habits that keep problems going.

Background and approach

Sessions are intended to be a place to talk without judgment. Angela helps people name what feels difficult and try practical steps to feel steadier. Conversations may include small experiments between sessions to test new ways of thinking and acting.

She works with common life issues such as sleep problems, parenting strain, workplace stress and career questions. Additional areas she addresses include autism and Asperger syndrome, caregiver stress, fertility and pregnancy-related concerns, and social anxiety. Her style is down-to-earth and collaborative.

People who want clear, practical steps alongside an understanding listener often find this a useful fit. The first meeting is used to clarify goals and decide what to try next.

How Angela’s approaches translate to online therapy

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and following the person's concerns. The therapist offers empathic listening, asks questions to understand what matters most, and helps clients set their own goals. This approach can be used effectively over video or phone when someone wants a supportive space to talk.

Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviours keep problems going and tests small changes. It often uses practical exercises and short tasks between sessions to build new habits, which can be shared and reviewed in online sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Angela will talk through your needs, goals and preferences and help decide which methods to try. The choice is collaborative and can be adjusted as you progress.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let you see body language and hold fuller conversations. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is low or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat or text messaging can suit quick check-ins, brief reflections or when a shorter, written exchange fits your day. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and other commitments, while still using structured approaches like client-centred work and CBT.
