Renetta Neal uses a person-centred approach to help people find clearer ways forward. She creates a calm, non-judgemental space where individuals set the pace and decide what to work on. Her style is straightforward and supportive for people feeling overwhelmed by life changes.

Renetta is a BACP member, bringing 20 years of experience working with adults, adolescents and children. She begins by building a trusting relationship so people feel able to talk about what matters most to them.

Background and approach

Once rapport is established, she and the person agree on practical goals and steps. Sessions can include suggested reading, worksheets and simple tools that fit each person’s needs. Renetta describes her work as mainly person-centred, while drawing on other counselling ideas when helpful.

This lets her adapt to different situations without pushing a single method. She has helped people with stress, anxiety and low self-esteem, and with parenting concerns and motivation. Renetta also works on depression, grief, anger and relationship issues, as well as neurodiversity-related challenges such as ADHD.

Her practice includes attention to life-stage matters like midlife concerns, ageing and young adult issues. People often come with family of origin worries, blended family and parenting strain, or feelings of guilt and shame. Renetta offers steady support for questions about self-love, purpose and navigating difficult emotions.

She helps people take small, practical steps toward clearer thinking and more manageable days.

How person-centred work adapts to online therapy

Renetta primarily uses Client-Centred Therapy, which focuses on listening, acceptance and following the person’s lead to build understanding and clearer choices. This approach is helpful for stress, anxiety, self-esteem and relationship concerns because it centres on what matters most to the individual.

She also draws on other counselling ideas where useful, bringing in practical exercises, worksheets or suggested reading to match each person’s needs. These additions are used collaboratively and only when they support the goals the person has set.

Finding the best approach is part of the process. Renetta works together with each person to decide what feels right, adapting methods to their goals, preferences and life circumstances. That collaborative planning helps make sessions feel relevant and manageable.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls allow more direct interaction, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can fit quick check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to schedule appointments around work, childcare or other commitments and to maintain continuity when life is busy.
