Teresa Carberry, BACP

Teresa Carberry is a BACP-accredited counsellor in the United Kingdom with 14 years of professional experience supporting adults through a wide range of life challenges. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, anger, addictions, self-harm and suicidal thoughts, and other concerns such as grief, parenting struggles, career issues and changes in intimacy and self-esteem. Teresa places respect, sensitivity and compassion at the centre of her practice, adapting conversations and therapeutic plans to fit each person’s individual needs and circumstances.

Clients can expect a tailored approach that aims to create space to explore emotions, patterns and practical coping strategies. Teresa also offers support for specific situations including first responder issues, jealousy, sexual assault and abuse, and eating or intimacy-related problems. As an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), she follows professional standards and ethical practice while helping clients take the first courageous steps toward greater wellbeing and more fulfilling relationships.

Teresa emphasises collaboration, believing the best outcomes grow from dialogue that respects the client’s pace and goals. She is available to work with both local and international clients through a range of online session formats, offering flexible ways to begin and continue therapy.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Teresa practices Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client’s own experiences and goals guide the work. This approach helps people who need empathy, understanding and a collaborative setting to explore feelings and relationships. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a goal-oriented method that helps clients identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns; CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, stress and coping with life challenges. Hypnotherapy is also part of her toolkit when appropriate, offering focused relaxation and suggestion-based techniques to support change in habits, reduce anxiety symptoms or address trauma-related responses.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Teresa works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit best for their needs, goals and personal preferences, and she adapts the plan over time as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy with Teresa is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier for people to access consistent care from home or while travelling, and allow therapy to continue when life circumstances make in-person appointments difficult. Registered professionals and therapists can use these formats effectively to maintain continuity and momentum in the work.
