About Cheryl
Cheryl Ennis is a counsellor who combines a person-centred way of working with practical tools to help people through difficult times. She aims to create an atmosphere where clients can speak openly and begin to understand the feelings behind their concerns. Cheryl is named in this profile and offers support for a wide range of issues including anxiety and panic disorder and panic attacks.
Her approach starts with listening. Cheryl uses client-centred methods to help people feel heard and respected. When helpful, she brings in techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and build coping strategies that work day to day.
Cheryl has nine years of experience and has worked with adults across a wide age range. She supports people with stress, depression, relationship and family issues, grief and trauma, and problems linked to self-esteem, substance use and sleep. Additional focuses include body image, control issues, guilt and shame, and social anxiety.
Cheryl is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, shown here as BACP. She follows the standards that come with that registration when she practises.
Sessions tend to focus on practical steps alongside emotional processing. Cheryl helps people identify what they want to change and then works with them to build doable strategies. She also uses motivational interviewing and elements of emotionally-focused and attachment-based work when that fits the person’s goals.
People usually begin by describing the most pressing issue, then together they set simple goals. Over time the work moves from understanding what happened to finding ways to manage and move forward.
How her approaches translate to online counselling
Cheryl blends client-centred work with cognitive behavioural ideas and attachment-focused thinking. Client-centred therapy means the counsellor listens closely and follows the person’s lead, which helps build trust and clarity. Cognitive behavioural therapy offers clear steps to notice unhelpful thoughts and practise new responses, useful for anxiety and panic. Attachment-based work looks at relationship patterns and how early connections affect current feelings and reactions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Cheryl will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and together they choose which methods to try. This collaborative planning helps make sessions feel relevant and manageable, and it can change as needs evolve.
The practical advantages of online therapy include fitting sessions around daily life and reducing travel time. Online options can make it easier to keep appointments during a busy week or while travelling. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which formats are available before booking. Registered or accredited professionals often adapt the same techniques used in face-to-face work to online sessions, focusing on clear goals and regular check-ins to track progress.
