About Ceri

Ceri Westcott is a counsellor and psychotherapist who draws on client-centred and mindfulness-based ways of working. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and has nine years of experience. Ceri offers straightforward support for people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns.

She helps people tell their story and notice what matters to them. Sessions focus on building self-compassion and practical coping skills. Mindfulness exercises and imagery may be used when helpful, but clients set the pace and approach.

Background and approach

Ceri often supports those dealing with trauma, compassion fatigue and low self-esteem. She also works with pregnancy and childbirth related issues, postpartum depression, fatherhood concerns and other parenting challenges. Career changes and adapting to life transitions are included in her scope.

Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. Conversations aim to be clear and useful rather than full of jargon. Ceri tailors techniques to each person’s needs and comfort level.

People can expect a mix of talking, gentle exercises and practical strategies in sessions. The aim is to help people reconnect with their values and find manageable steps forward. Ceri practises across the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English.

Approaches that suit online counselling

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice what matters and take small, value-based steps forward. It uses practical exercises to reduce getting stuck on difficult thoughts and feelings and is useful for anxiety, stress and life changes.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape expectations and reactions today. It can help with relationship struggles, parenting concerns and feelings that come from past hurts by focusing on safety and connection in the therapeutic relationship.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and try different ways of working to match the client's needs, aims and preferences. This is a collaborative process where goals are reviewed and methods adjusted as progress is made.

Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video is helpful for face-to-face conversation and exercises, phone calls can be easier on low bandwidth, chat or text can suit short check-ins or people who prefer typing. These formats make it simpler to fit therapy around work, childcare and other commitments while keeping the focus on practical strategies and emotional support.
