Cheryl Clokey helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family conflict, grief and depression. She works in a straightforward, respectful way and aims to make conversations feel manageable. Cheryl is based in the United Kingdom and speaks English.

Cheryl uses a tailored approach. She listens for what matters most to each person, then adapts the sessions to fit those needs. Conversations are practical and compassionate, focusing on small steps that can make daily life easier.

Background and approach

Her experience includes supporting people with ageing and geriatric issues, body image concerns, chronic pain or long-term illness, and communication problems. She also addresses domestic violence, family problems, and the emotional fallout from infidelity. Cheryl works with issues such as guilt, shame, isolation, life purpose and midlife transitions.

Additional focus areas include postpartum depression, seasonal affective disorder, prejudice and discrimination, and the emotional challenges that come with chronic conditions. Sessions may attend to grief and loss and to rebuilding routines after major life changes. Cheryl holds BACP accreditation, which reflects professional standing in the UK.

She has three years of professional experience and aims to help people feel more able to cope and make changes at a pace that suits them.

Approaches and how online sessions work

Cheryl uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional understanding. One common approach looks at thoughts and daily behaviours to reduce anxiety and low mood; it helps people notice patterns and try small experiments to feel better. Another method centres on talking through relationships and family dynamics to improve communication and set clearer boundaries; this helps when conversations feel stuck or painful.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Cheryl will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and together they will choose or adapt methods that feel most helpful. She aims to match the pace and style of therapy to what a person needs at that time.

Online therapy with Cheryl uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging so people can choose what suits their routine. Video calls work well for face-to-face conversation and reading non-verbal cues. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or when internet bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging suit brief check-ins, written reflection, or times when not being on camera helps someone engage. These options make therapy more flexible for different schedules and needs.
