About Cheryl
Cheryl Hunton is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. She meets people where they are and offers calm, practical support for everyday struggles. Cheryl works in English and draws on accessible methods to help people feel steadier and more able to cope.
Her main focus is on stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and life changes. She also helps people dealing with grief, anger, relationship strain, parenting pressures and challenges linked to ADHD.
Background and approach
Cheryl offers help around work and career stress, compassion fatigue and chronic health concerns as well. Cheryl uses a client-centred way of working. That means conversations focus on the person in front of her and their priorities.
She combines this with elements of psychodynamic thinking and cognitive behavioural techniques to tackle unhelpful patterns and improve day-to-day coping. In sessions she aims to create a warm, non-judgemental space for talking things through. Meetings can include listening, reflecting, practical strategies and gentle exploration of past experiences that still influence the present.
The goal is to find steps that feel manageable for each person. Cheryl is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She offers sessions online by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging and does not work with international clients.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange sessions to suit their schedule.

Therapeutic approaches for online counselling
Cheryl often uses client-centred counselling, which puts the person's concerns and goals at the heart of the work. Sessions focus on listening, reflecting and helping someone make choices that feel right for them. She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, a practical approach that looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions link together and offers tools to change unhelpful patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the process rather than a fixed decision up front. Cheryl works collaboratively to identify which methods fit a person's needs, goals and preferences, and adapts the mix as therapy progresses.
Online sessions give practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that feels useful. Phone sessions can be an easier option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing, want frequent brief contacts, or find messaging fits their routines better.
