About Gerrard
Gerrard Fauguel is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 23 years of experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions and relationship concerns. He also helps with grief, sleep problems, anger, self-esteem and career changes.
Gerrard draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside client-centred and solution-focused work. He uses these approaches to help people name emotions that feel confusing and to spot patterns that keep causing pain. Sessions are practical and conversational, with attention to feelings and to what can be tried between meetings.
People come to him after trauma, abuse or loss, and for issues such as attachment worries, abandonment, codependency and dissociation. He also supports those coping with illness, separation, domestic violence and substance problems. Gerrard has long experience working with people who identify with autism and Asperger syndrome.
His background includes life coaching alongside counselling, and he blends motivational interviewing when people are weighing change. That blend aims to balance listening with clear, actionable steps. Gerrard prefers short, direct conversations that help clients test small changes between sessions.
Sessions focus on what a person wants to change next. He explains choices clearly and checks that suggested steps make sense in everyday life. To get started clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session via the See online therapy options button.
How his approaches translate to online work
Gerrard uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people name and work with difficult emotions and attachment patterns. EFT focuses on identifying core feelings and the interaction patterns they produce, which can be useful for worries about relationships and intimacy. He also uses client-centred therapy, which prioritises listening, acceptance and supporting a person's own pace of change.The therapist treats finding the right method as part of the work. He will discuss goals, try an approach for a few sessions, and adjust based on what the client finds most helpful. That collaborative stance helps match techniques to a person's needs and preferences rather than imposing a single method.
The original biography did not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. Some formats need less bandwidth or do not require being on camera, which can suit quieter conversations or brief motivational coaching moments. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly use these benefits to help clients maintain continuity of care.
