Novena-Chanel Davies
Helping people heal relationship and family patterns
About Novena-Chanel
Novena-Chanel Davies welcomes people who are feeling stuck by difficult relationships, family issues, trauma, low self-esteem or big life changes. She helps individuals who are carrying painful pasts or who want clearer direction in their relationships and sense of self. Novena-Chanel writes her name pronunciation to make introductions easier for new clients.
She works from a relational and holistic viewpoint. Sessions focus on noticing patterns - especially around attachment and family of origin - and learning practical ways to change them.
Background and approach
She draws on client-centred work to keep the pace guided by the person in the room and uses cognitive tools to challenge unhelpful thinking. Her background includes 13 years in the field and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
Over that time she has also taught counselling, supervised other counsellors, and spoken and written about topics such as childhood sexual abuse, domestic violence and race and identity. In practice she designs therapy plans with regular reviews so people can see progress. Sessions aim to break recurring patterns and build manageable habits that last beyond therapy.
The focus is practical - small, steady changes that fit everyday life. Novena-Chanel accepts international clients and works in English. She offers flexible session types so people can choose what fits their routines and needs.

How her approaches work online
Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape the way people form bonds now; online sessions can help identify those patterns and practise safer ways of connecting. Client-centred therapy puts the person's experience at the heart of each session, allowing the therapist to follow the client’s lead and build a trusting working relationship. Cognitive behavioural approaches give simple, practical techniques to spot and reframe unhelpful thoughts and to try small behavioural experiments that change day-to-day life.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Novena-Chanel will discuss options and help decide which methods match a person's needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process that may change as the work progresses.
Online therapy offers flexibility and a range of ways to connect. Video calls support a face-to-face style conversation, phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in, live chat suits people who prefer typed conversation in real time and text-based messaging lets someone send thoughts between scheduled sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around family life, work or travel while keeping the focus on practical change and emotional understanding.
