About Patricia

Patricia Telfer is a counsellor who concentrates on helping people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. She keeps things direct and easy to follow, so conversations feel straightforward. Patricia aims to create an open, non-judgemental space where people can talk about what worries them.

She uses a client-centred approach, listening carefully and reflecting what she hears. That helps people untangle their thoughts and decide what matters to them. Sessions can be short-term to clarify a next step or longer-term to build steady coping skills.

Background and approach

Patricia has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and works with common concerns such as grief, sleeping problems, anger and relationship stress. She also supports people dealing with parenting strain, life changes, control issues and learning to practise self-love. Her style is honest and plain-speaking.

She aims to help people feel understood and more able to plan practical steps forward. Many clients revisit work with her over time to steady themselves through change. To begin, she encourages a simple first contact and a brief matching process to see if the fit feels right.

The focus is on helping people find clearer thinking, stronger coping and a sense of direction.

Ways of working Patricia names

Client-Centred Therapy

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Client-centred care online and how it helps

Client-Centred Therapy is about the person in the room. The counsellor listens without directing and offers reflections that help you find your own answers. This approach suits people who want a supportive space to sort out feelings about stress, anxiety, grief or major life changes.

Patricia's plain-speaking style pairs with client-centred work to make sessions feel practical and down to earth. Together the counsellor and client look at what matters most and try different ways to move forward. Deciding which approach fits best is part of the work, and she will help you choose methods that match your goals and preferences in a collaborative way.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful for a face-to-face conversation; phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are convenient for brief check-ins or for people who find typing easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit counselling around work, family and day-to-day life while keeping the focus on what you want to achieve.
