Precious Carrington-Gomes
Practical counselling for everyday struggles
About Precious
Precious Carrington-Gomes is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 15 years of experience in health and wellbeing work. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, often shortened to BACP. She focuses on clear, practical help for people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood or relationship strain.
She aims to make sessions calm and straightforward. She creates a space where thoughts and feelings can be talked about without judgment.
Background and approach
Conversations are guided by the person in front of her and by what matters most to them in day-to-day life. Precious uses approaches that help people notice unhelpful patterns, build coping skills and reconnect with what matters. She combines client-centred listening with cognitive behavioural ideas and mindfulness techniques.
Motivational interviewing and psychodynamic thinking shape how she explores long-standing patterns and goals. Her work covers a wide range of concerns including anger, self-esteem, trauma and intimacy-related issues. She also supports people dealing with parenting strain, compassion fatigue, chronic illness, adoption and attachment issues, and challenges linked to ageing or caregiving.
Sessions are pragmatic and paced to the individual. Precious helps people set achievable steps, practise new ways of responding, and reflect on progress. Her approach suits those who want steady, practical support while exploring deeper personal patterns.

How her approaches work online
Precious uses client-centred counselling which focuses on listening and following the person's lead. This approach helps people feel heard and decide what to work on first. She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at unhelpful thinking and teaches simple skills to change patterns and lower anxiety or low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will talk with clients at the start and adapt methods to fit their goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process where the person and the therapist agree on practical steps and ways to measure progress.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video calls allow fuller conversation when face-to-face style contact helps, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging suit quick check-ins, brief reflections or when a shorter, more frequent touchpoint is useful. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving and busy days.
