About Sheila

Sheila Burrowes is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with five years of experience. She works with individuals and couples on relationship and personal issues using a mix of approaches that suit each person.

Sheila practices an integrated style. That means she draws on different therapies and uses what fits each person’s situation. She works at the client’s pace and adapts methods to the problem being discussed.

People come to her for many concerns. These include stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, trauma and abuse, and relationship and intimacy issues. She also helps with parenting strains, self-esteem, anger, career worries and coping with life changes.

Her wider focus covers situations such as divorce and separation, blended family issues, infidelity, domestic violence, cancer and ageing-related concerns. Sheila also pays attention to comorbidity, dissociation, dependent personality features, guilt and shame, and isolation or loneliness.

Her practice uses therapies such as Client-Centred Therapy, Imago Relationship Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, Narrative Therapy and Psychodynamic Therapy. Sessions aim to give people a clear place to talk things through and to try approaches that fit their goals.

Sheila offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. Before booking, people are asked to confirm the current session options and any practical arrangements they need to make.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s own perspective. The counsellor listens without directing and helps someone clarify their thoughts and feelings. This approach suits people who want a space to understand themselves better.

Imago Relationship Therapy looks at interaction patterns between partners. It uses structured conversations to improve communication and understanding. This method is often used for relationship and intimacy-related concerns.

Sheila treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs with each person and then try methods that match those aims. Adjustments are made as therapy progresses so the work fits the individual or couple.

Session formats were not specified in the biography, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel. They also allow quicker check-ins when life is busy and can reduce travel time compared with in-person appointments. Registered or accredited professionals can use these arrangements to keep therapy working around everyday routines.
