Persephone Moir, BACP

Persephone Moir is a United Kingdom-based therapist with ten years of professional experience and holds the BACP credential, which indicates membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and adherence to recognised professional standards.

She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and intimacy-related concerns, and she supports clients who are struggling with self-esteem, motivation and confidence. Her practice also addresses a wide range of related issues including attachment and abandonment, body image, chronic pain and illness, dissociation, codependency, family and fatherhood matters, and questions around BDSM, kink and alternative sex cultures.

Persephone aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored safely and honestly. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to each client, helping them to understand patterns, process difficult experiences and build practical steps toward change. She recognises that beginning therapy takes courage and affirms the decision to start as an important first step on the path to feeling better.

Evidence-based approaches and flexible online care

Persephone Moir draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to trauma and anxiety, using trauma-informed methods that help people make sense of past harm, reduce distressing symptoms and regain a sense of safety and control. She also uses focused approaches for anxiety and depression that aim to identify unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and build practical strategies for managing mood, motivation and stress.

For relationship and intimacy concerns, Persephone works from an attachment-aware perspective that explores relational patterns and communication, supporting people to improve connection, boundaries and self-worth. She approaches therapy collaboratively and will work with each client to find the combination of techniques that best fits their needs, goals and personal preferences.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, which make scheduling easier and reduce travel time. These formats allow registered professionals to offer timely support across different days and times, and they provide flexible ways for clients to engage with therapy while balancing work, family and health commitments.
