Cheryl Ennis
Supportive person-centred counsellor for everyday struggles
About Cheryl
Cheryl Ennis uses a person-centred approach to help people make sense of difficult feelings. She connects with clients in a calm, respectful way and supports practical steps towards clearer thinking and healthier reactions. Cheryl draws on nine years of experience to guide people through stress, anxiety, depression and relationship pain.
She works with people dealing with trauma and abuse, addiction, grief and intimacy-related issues. She also helps with everyday struggles like sleeping problems, eating concerns, low self-esteem and anger.
Background and approach
Cheryl pays attention to communication problems, control issues, body image and social anxiety when these affect day-to-day life. Cheryl integrates cognitive behavioural techniques when specific skills are helpful. That means she’ll help identify unhelpful thoughts and try out different ways of thinking and behaving.
She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early bonds shape current relationships, and emotionally-focused work to address painful patterns in close relationships. Her background includes registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That is noted as her professional credential.
Cheryl has supported people across a wide age range during her nine years in practice. Sessions are practical and conversational. Cheryl aims to create a non-judgemental space where people can say what’s on their mind and try new coping strategies.
She encourages small steps and checks in on progress so people can build confidence over time.

How Cheryl’s approaches translate to online therapy
Cheryl blends person-centred work with cognitive behavioural and attachment-based ideas to guide online sessions. Person-centred work focuses on listening and understanding so clients feel heard; it helps with low self-esteem, grief and general life stress. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to challenge unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviours, which can help with anxiety, panic and mood problems. Attachment-based ideas look at how past relationship patterns affect current connections and can be useful for intimacy and communication difficulties.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Cheryl will discuss goals and preferences and help decide which methods to try first. This is a collaborative process so plans can change as progress is made and new needs emerge.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging is useful for shorter check-ins or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments and to keep continuity when life is busy.
