About Aileen
Her approach is practical and collaborative. She talks with clients to understand their history and what matters to them now. Together they shape a plan that fits the person, not a one-size-fits-all method. That plan can address self-esteem, coping with life changes, career pressures and other everyday struggles.
Aileen also supports people dealing with attachment and abandonment issues, adoption and foster care questions, and the emotional effects of domestic violence. She works with people affected by drug and alcohol addiction, dissociation, infidelity, fertility problems and money worries. The aim is to help clients understand patterns and develop new ways of managing them.
Clinically she draws on approaches such as Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. These methods are used flexibly to suit each person’s goals. Aileen describes therapy as a joint process where the client’s experience guides the work.
She is registered with BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Sessions are conducted in English and she is available to work with international clients. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions according to the therapist’s schedule.
Therapeutic approaches suited to online work
Aileen uses several clear approaches that adapt well to remote sessions. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in relationships and how early bonds shape current reactions; it helps when trust and connection are part of the difficulty. Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the heart of the work, giving space to speak and be listened to without judgement; this approach supports people who need time to find their own answers. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together and teaches practical steps to change unhelpful patterns; it is useful for anxiety, low mood and stress management.Choosing the best approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. Together they decide which methods to use and adjust the plan as progress is made, so the work stays relevant to the person's needs.
Practical benefits of online therapy can include fitting sessions around work and family life, reducing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. Because session formats were not specified in the biography, please confirm the exact options available before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can guide how remote sessions will be structured to match your goals.
