About Gayle

Gayle Wilde helps people who are feeling stressed, anxious, low in confidence, or struggling with depression. She also supports people dealing with grief, relationship concerns, sexuality questions, and the particular pressures that affect LGBT individuals. Her work addresses practical coping during life change, and she pays attention to issues like social anxiety, attachment worries, and feelings of guilt or shame.

Gayle uses a mix of approaches that suit each person.

Background and approach

She focuses on listening without judgement and on moving at a pace the person is comfortable with. Sessions are shaped around the individual and their goals rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. Her background includes seven years of professional experience with suicide intervention and prevention and with grief linked to suicide.

She draws on that experience when supporting people through very painful times and loss. Gayle practises using Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, hypnotherapy, mindfulness, and psychodynamic ideas. In plain terms this means she pays attention to how early relationships affect feelings, centres the person's own perspective, uses relaxation and focused attention when helpful, and explores patterns that repeat over time.

Sessions are offered in English and are run from the United Kingdom. Gayle works by online video, phone, live chat or text messaging, and aims to respond to messages promptly on the days she works.

How Gayle's approaches work online

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape how a person responds to stress and close connections. Online sessions can be used to notice patterns, practise new ways of relating, and build more supported ways of connecting. Client-Centred Therapy places the person's own experience at the centre of the session; the counsellor listens carefully and reflects back so the person can find their own solutions and build confidence. Hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation and focused attention to help with things like anxiety, pain management and breaking unhelpful habits.

Choosing the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options in the first conversations and help decide what to try based on the person's needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and approaches can be adjusted as therapy progresses.

Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls let the therapist and person work face to face when visual cues help. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging are good for people who prefer typing, need quick message-based check-ins, or want to fit therapy around a busy day. These options make it easier to book sessions that suit work, family or travel commitments.
