About Angela
Angela Farrelly is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports those facing big life changes and people seeking more motivation and confidence. Angela uses a calm, respectful approach that keeps the client's own goals at the centre of the work.
She believes each person knows their story best and brings their own strengths into sessions. Angela draws on a mix of practical methods, including cognitive behavioural tools and acceptance-based ideas, to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and make small, lasting changes. Sessions focus on realistic steps the person can take between meetings.
Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. She listens first and offers techniques and exercises when they might help. Conversations are straightforward and paced to suit the individual rather than following a rigid formula.
Angela has a British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy accreditation, abbreviated as BACP, and four years of professional experience. That background informs her work but she keeps the conversation practical and focused on what matters now.
People often come for help with relationships, grief, sleep and eating concerns, addiction or neurodiversity-related issues such as ADHD and autism. Angela aims to help people find manageable ways to cope and to build more helpful everyday habits.

How Angela’s approaches can work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and motivation problems. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying common thinking patterns and testing them with practical exercises to reduce symptoms like worry and sleep difficulties. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape patterns now and can help with relationship issues and attachment concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Angela will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their needs and goals. She listens to preferences and adapts techniques over time so the plan fits how the person wants to change.
If you are considering online sessions, please confirm current session options before booking as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time so sessions can slot into a lunch break or after work. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists, often use these practical advantages to help people maintain consistency and build everyday habits.
