Felicity Woolsey, NCPS

Felicity Woolsey is a humanistic, person-centred counsellor who focuses on exploring the root causes of emotional and behavioural difficulties while helping clients develop practical coping strategies. She blends talking therapy with skills-based approaches, drawing on cognitive behavioral techniques and dialectical behavior therapy skills to support emotional regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindful awareness. With five years of clinical experience, she runs a private practice in the United Kingdom and works with a broad range of client groups.

Felicity has worked in substance misuse rehabilitation and in mental health ward settings, where she facilitated group therapies including DBT, a model often used in the treatment of borderline personality disorder. She also has experience offering couples and family work, supporting young people, and treating addictive behaviours such as substance misuse, porn and sex addiction, gambling, and eating disorders.

Her practice supports people facing anxiety, depression, phobias, work-related stress, relationship difficulties, and a variety of sexualities. Additional focus areas include attachment issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, body image concerns, commitment and communication problems, control issues, dissociation, domestic violence, hoarding, and other complex presentations.

She offers a nonjudgmental, empathic therapeutic space and draws on personal life experience to inform her understanding of clients.

Therapeutic Approaches Applied to Online Support

Felicity uses client-centred therapy to create an empathic, nonjudgmental space where the client’s experience guides the pace and focus of work. This approach helps people who need validation, exploration of personal values, and support making sense of life changes.

She also employs cognitive behavioral therapy, a practical method that identifies unhelpful thoughts and patterns and teaches skills to change responses to anxiety, depression, stress, and many daily challenges. Mindfulness therapy is offered alongside these approaches to help clients develop present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity to distressing thoughts and emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Felicity collaborates with each client to determine which methods suit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Felicity is available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make regular engagement more accessible for people living abroad, balancing work and family commitments, or preferring remote sessions while still working with a registered professional.
