Beverli Taylor, BACP

Beverli Taylor is a person-centred therapist in the United Kingdom with twenty years of clinical experience. She is a BACP-registered practitioner, referring to the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy, and also works as a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, bringing careful attention to processing difficult experiences and emotions. Working from a humanistic and integrative perspective, she combines client-centred principles with techniques from Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, meditation and mindfulness to tailor support to each person she sees.

She has supported people confronting identity questions, body image concerns, and challenges with confidence and self-esteem that affect daily functioning. Her therapeutic focus extends across relationships and family breakdown, trauma and abuse, loss and bereavement, stress, anxiety and depression, and domestic abuse. Beverli has extensive experience working with a broad spectrum of presenting issues and diverse backgrounds.

In an initial session she explores a client's therapeutic needs and clarifies what the person wants from the process, and together they identify tools and practical strategies to manage current difficulties. Her style is described as authentic, resourceful, calm and respectful, and she aims to provide a safe, personal space where thoughts and feelings can be explored and possibilities for change considered. Beverli offers steady, compassionate support and accompanies clients as they work toward their goals.

Approaches That Inform Online Work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on creating an accepting, non-judgemental environment in which the client’s own experiences and insights guide the pace and direction of change - it is helpful for building self-understanding and personal confidence. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression and stress and support day-to-day coping. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on understanding and reshaping patterns in close relationships, which can be especially useful for couples or individuals working on attachment and intimacy issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Beverli works collaboratively with clients and registered professionals to determine which methods best match a person's needs, goals and preferences, adjusting the mix of techniques as therapy progresses. This collaborative stance helps clients feel involved in decisions about their care.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video calls, by phone, through live chat, or via text-based messaging - making it easier to fit therapy into busy lives or to access support from a distance. These options allow consistent contact, timely support between sessions when appropriate, and easier scheduling for people with work, family or mobility constraints.
