About Ingrid

Ingrid Koehler is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma and grief. She works with issues like low self-esteem, anger, intimacy concerns, eating difficulties and coping with life changes. Ingrid aims to offer a calm and respectful space for people to talk about what is hurting them and to begin making sense of it.

She listens first to each person’s story and then helps them find practical ways to cope.

Background and approach

Her work often focuses on how early attachments and relationship patterns affect present behaviour. She also pays attention to painful events such as abuse, loss or long-term stress and how these shape feelings and reactions. With 14 years of professional experience, Ingrid draws on approaches that centre the person’s experience and emotions.

She uses client-centred listening alongside attachment and emotionally-focused methods to explore feelings, safety and connection. Trauma-focused ideas are used when past events are affecting day-to-day life. Her background includes many years in nursing in the NHS, working in cancer care and clinical trials, before moving to personal counselling practice.

She is listed with BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Sessions are offered in English and can take place online or by phone. Ingrid works with people who want to understand painful patterns, reduce distress and rebuild confidence.

She aims to tailor conversations and the plan to each person’s needs.

How Ingrid’s approaches translate to online work

Attachment-based work looks at how earlier relationship patterns shape current feelings and reactions. Online sessions using this approach help people recognise repeated patterns and try new ways of connecting with others. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding without judgement; it gives people space to set the pace and topics of conversation and can be done by talking or messaging. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps identify and name core emotions in the moment and explore how they affect relationships and behaviour, which can be effective when addressing intimacy and relationship pain.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. Together they will decide which methods to use and adapt them as therapy progresses, so the work stays relevant and practical.

Online sessions offer a range of practical options. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual connection. Phone sessions are useful when a call without video is easier or bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text-based messaging can suit shorter check-ins or people who find writing easier. These formats increase flexibility and make it easier to fit counselling around work, family and daily life.
