About Cherena

Cherena Morlese welcomes people who feel stuck, overwhelmed or unsure where to turn. She offers straightforward, practical support for stress, anxiety, low mood and major life changes. Sessions are aimed at helping people find small, steady steps that make day-to-day life feel more manageable.

Cherena uses a client-centred way of working, so sessions follow what matters most to each person. She also draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people live by their values even when things feel difficult.

Background and approach

These methods are explained in simple terms and practised together in session. People come to Cherena for many concerns, including grief, relationship and family strain, addictions, trauma and issues with eating or sleeping. She also supports those dealing with career stress, parenting pressures and compassion fatigue.

Her work often focuses on improving communication, setting boundaries and managing intense emotions. Sessions are conversational and practical. Cherena offers tools, reflective questions and short exercises to try between meetings.

She encourages openness and gives space to process painful experiences without judgement. She has worked in the field for nine years and lists membership with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Cherena works with people across the United Kingdom and accepts international clients.

Sessions are delivered in English and via a range of online formats.

How these approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then focus on small actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, depression and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and uses practical exercises to shift unhelpful patterns; it often helps with anxiety, low mood and sleep problems. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships shape current patterns and supports people to build healthier ways of relating when trust or closeness have been hard.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and together they will decide which ideas and exercises to try. That collaborative process means methods can be adapted as things change or new priorities emerge.

Online sessions make this collaborative work flexible. Video calls let people talk face to face and try exercises together. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat or text-based messaging offers brief contact and reflection between longer sessions. These options help people fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
