Bethany Macintyre works with people from the United Kingdom and internationally. She holds BACP accreditation and has four years of professional experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. Bethany describes therapy as a place to feel heard and to build on existing strengths.

She aims to make the first steps toward change less daunting for someone who is worried or overwhelmed. Her approach is straightforward and warm.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on what matters most to the client and move at a pace that feels manageable. She uses Client-Centred Therapy to listen carefully and reflect what clients say so they can better understand themselves. Bethany also works with people facing life transitions and motivation struggles.

She helps people talk through feelings of emptiness, isolation and guilt, and addresses issues such as relationship communication, attachment concerns and codependency. Addiction-related problems including drug and alcohol dependence and process addictions are also part of her focus. Practical coping strategies are introduced when they fit the client’s goals.

That might mean exploring values, practising self-compassion or developing small daily routines. The emphasis is on realistic steps that can be tried between sessions. Sessions are offered in English and can be arranged by following the site start process.

Bethany welcomes clients who want a calm, listening space and a partner in making gradual changes.

Client-Centred care online and how it helps

The main approach Bethany uses is Client-Centred Therapy. This method focuses on listening closely and reflecting back what a person says so they can make sense of their feelings. It is useful for issues like low self-esteem, anxiety, relationship worries and coping with life changes.

She may blend practical discussions about daily routines, values and small behavioural steps alongside client-led listening. That combination helps people notice what they already do well while testing gentle changes at a sustainable pace. Deciding which mix suits a person is a collaborative process between client and counsellor.

Online therapy offers flexibility and practical options. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a visual connection matters. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat or text messaging can be used for brief check-ins or when writing feels easier than speaking. These formats help people fit sessions around work, family and travel, and make it simpler to keep continuity of care across locations.
