Cherelle Medas is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years' experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood or life changes. Cherelle focuses on practical support and helping people regain confidence and a clearer sense of direction.

Cherelle uses several therapeutic styles to match what each person needs.

Background and approach

She draws on client-centred work to build trust and make people feel heard. Cognitive behavioural techniques help break unhelpful thinking and shift coping habits. She also uses psychodynamic and existential ideas to look at deeper patterns and life meaning when that is helpful.

Sessions typically help people manage immediate worries and build everyday skills. Cherelle supports work on relationship strain, parenting pressures, grief, career stress and burnout from caregiving or compassion fatigue. She also addresses concerns such as body image, abandonment, codependency and feelings of emptiness.

Therapy is practical and conversational. Cherelle will help set clear goals and try out small changes between sessions. The pace is agreed with each person, and sessions are adjusted as progress is made.

People take the first step by completing a short matching questionnaire and booking sessions that fit their schedule. Cherelle offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to suit different needs and routines.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience. The counsellor offers empathy and reflection so people feel heard and can explore what matters to them. This approach helps when someone needs a steady, accepting space to make sense of difficult feelings.

Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions affect each other. It uses clear steps and practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and build better coping routines, which can be useful for anxiety, panic and low mood.

Finding the right method is part of the work together. Cherelle will discuss goals, try approaches that match a person's needs, and adjust the plan as progress is made. This collaborative way makes it easier to test what helps and what does not.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation; phone sessions can fit into a short break or when internet bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging let people check in between calls or work in shorter, more frequent bursts. These options give flexibility so therapy can fit around work, family and everyday life.
