Angela Farrelly helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression and low self-esteem. She also supports those facing trauma or abuse, addictions, grief and major life changes. Angela uses straightforward, calm conversation to make worries easier to talk about.

She works in English and is based in the United Kingdom. Angela treats each person as the expert on their own life. She focuses on small, practical steps that can reduce distress and build confidence.

Background and approach

Sessions are collaborative and paced to match what the person needs that week. Her aim is to make therapy feel manageable rather than overwhelming. Her background includes four years of professional practice.

Angela holds registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP. She draws on a mix of approaches to match different situations and personalities rather than one single method. In sessions she helps people explore patterns that maintain worry or low mood and then tries new ways of responding.

That can mean noticing thoughts and values, practising coping skills, or working on how past attachments shape current relationships. Angela keeps explanations plain and gives practical exercises to try between meetings. People who come for support often want clearer emotional balance, better sleep, or stronger self-belief.

Angela will work with the issues you bring, from career stress to parenting strain, and help set achievable goals. She encourages small changes that add up over time.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking small actions in line with those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help with anxiety, low mood and life transitions by shifting attention to meaningful goals rather than fighting unpleasant experiences.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and then tries concrete alternatives. It is often used for anxiety, depression and sleep or eating concerns because it offers practical techniques to test in everyday life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Angela will discuss different methods and choose what fits your needs, goals and preferences in collaboration with you. That means plans can change as progress is made or new priorities emerge.

Online sessions can be arranged by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different situations. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Chat and messaging are useful for shorter updates, ongoing support between sessions, or when written reflection feels easier. These options give practical flexibility so therapy can fit around work, family life and daily routines.
