About Angela

Angela Bryant is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has around 10 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on concerns such as trauma and abuse, addiction, anxiety, depression and relationship and intimacy-related issues. Sessions are conducted in English and she practises in the United Kingdom.

Angela uses an integrative approach and draws on several therapies to match what each person needs. She often includes Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at patterns around feelings and attachment. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is used to address unhelpful thinking and behaviour, and mindfulness methods are included to help with everyday stress management.

Her background includes many years supporting people in recovery from addiction alongside clinical counselling practice. That experience informs practical ways to manage relapse triggers, cravings and the routines that can keep problems going. Angela also works with mood disorders, ADHD-related concerns, eating difficulties and issues around guilt, shame or isolation.

In sessions she helps people name difficult feelings and notice how those feelings shape choices and relationships. Work can include talking, reflecting on patterns, and practising new responses between appointments. Angela aims to help people gain clearer thinking and more manageable ways to cope with life changes.

To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session is scheduled. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. International clients are not currently accepted.

How her approaches work for online counselling

Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps name and work with the emotions that shape relationships and personal patterns. It focuses on recognising feelings, how they connect people, and changing ways of relating that cause distress. Client-Centred Therapy centres on listening and reflecting back what a person brings, making space for them to find their own solutions and clearer thinking. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going and introduces practical steps to change them, which can be helpful for anxiety, mood and addictive patterns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Angela will discuss options with each person and decide together which combination of methods best fits the person’s needs, goals and preferences. This collaborative way of working helps adjust the focus if something isn’t helping.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm the session options before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and everyday life. Shorter check-ins, sessions without video, or flexible scheduling can reduce travel and make attendance more practical while still allowing the therapist and client to work on emotions, thinking patterns and recovery strategies.
