About Cheryl

BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with nine years' experience, Cheryl Ennis helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship concerns. She uses person-centred methods combined with practical tools from cognitive behavioural approaches to help people manage difficult feelings and day-to-day problems.

Cheryl keeps sessions focused on what the person brings each week. She listens for patterns in thinking and relating, then works alongside the person to try different ways of responding. That often means talking through current worries, noticing unhelpful thought habits, and practising small changes that can make daily life easier.

She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current connections. For people with trauma or abuse histories she aims to move at a steady pace and prioritise safety in conversation. Motivational Interviewing is used when someone wants clearer direction or help finding reasons to change a habit, such as with addictions or lifestyle shifts.

Cheryl has supported people with grief, parenting stress, sleep and eating concerns, panic attacks, body image and career uncertainty. She works with anger, guilt and shame as well as isolation and social anxiety. Sessions include coaching elements when someone wants practical steps toward a goal.

She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and offers help in English. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.

How her approaches shape remote sessions

Cheryl uses person-centred work to keep sessions focused on the person's current concerns and experience. That approach prioritises listening, reflection and supporting someone to find their own answers, which tends to suit people wanting a collaborative, conversational style.

She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and try practical alternatives. CBT-style work in sessions often includes short exercises or thinking tools that a person can practise between meetings, useful for anxiety, panic and low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. This is a collaborative decision and may change as work progresses.

Confirm the session formats available before booking. The practical advantage of remote sessions is fitting therapy into busy routines - for example shorter check-ins during a lunch break or avoiding travel time. Remote meetings can also make it easier to focus on talking and practice exercises without leaving work or home, though specific formats should be checked when arranging appointments.
