Precious Carrington-Gomes is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 15 years of experience supporting people through emotional strain. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and brings a calm, steady presence to sessions. She works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, anger, low self-esteem and compassion fatigue.

Precious aims to make the first steps feel manageable.

Background and approach

She creates a warm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk about difficult feelings. Sessions focus on practical ways to cope while also making room to understand deeper patterns that cause distress. Her approach is flexible.

She uses client-centred listening to follow what matters most to the person in front of her. She combines this with cognitive behavioural ideas to spot and change unhelpful thinking, and draws on mindfulness to build calm and focus.

Precious has worked across health and wellbeing services for many years, supporting people through life changes, grief, long-term health challenges and the particular stresses of caring for others. She is experienced in issues related to adoption and foster care, attachment, ageing, chronic illness and body image concerns.

Sessions are conducted in English and are offered online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging. People who want to start are encouraged to use the platform match process to book an initial appointment and find a rhythm that fits their life.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Precious combines client-centred therapy and cognitive behavioural therapy in ways that suit each person. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person's experience, helping them feel heard and supported while they decide what matters most. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours connect and offers practical steps to change unhelpful patterns and reduce distress.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. She will work with the client to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. That choice is collaborative and can change over time as the work progresses.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video calls are useful for a face-to-face feel when discussing personal material. Phone sessions can work well when lighting or bandwidth are limited. Live chat or text messaging can suit quick check-ins, shorter sessions or people who prefer writing. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving duties or health needs, while keeping the focus on consistent, helpful therapeutic work.
