About Penny
Penny Farrelly is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years' experience working with common life difficulties. She focuses on stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, career concerns and depression, among other issues, and uses a person-centred approach in her work.
Penny believes clients know their own stories and that therapy is a space to talk things through. Sessions move at the client's pace and aim to build on existing strengths. She frames the work around listening and reflecting rather than directing solutions.
Clients come for help with a wide range of concerns. These include relationships, coping with life changes, grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, sleeping and eating difficulties, anger and compassion fatigue. There is also attention to workplace issues, young adult matters and issues related to adoption and foster care.
Penny also works with topics such as ADHD, isolation and loneliness, midlife questions, ageing and geriatric issues, chronic illness and cancer, and exploring life purpose and self-love. Her practice includes practical conversations about motivation, confidence and managing stress in daily life.
She is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and conducts her work in English. People interested in starting can follow the site's sign-up steps to complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange a first session.
Sheet 2
Approach and what online sessions involve
Penny works from a person-centred framework. This approach centres on listening and reflecting back what the client brings. It is commonly used for issues like stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and coping with life changes because it focuses on understanding the person's experience rather than giving direct instruction.The therapist will treat choosing an approach as a collaborative process. She will explore your needs, goals and preferences and help decide whether person-centred work or a different way of working fits best. That choice can shift as therapy progresses and will be discussed together.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as the biography does not specify them here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins, and letting people join from a convenient location. They can also suit people who prefer not to use video, as audio or other arrangements can sometimes be arranged depending on the therapist's offered formats.
