About Åse

Åse Greenacre is a BACP-registered counsellor with 16 years of professional experience working in the UK. She helps people with stress, anxiety, depression, parenting concerns, separation and low self-esteem. She also supports people dealing with grief, relationship strain and life transitions.

Åse grew up in Sweden and has lived in several countries, including long periods in Switzerland and the UK. Her background includes work within the NHS at a GP surgery and in private practice. That range of settings means she is used to different ways people come to therapy and the practical pressures that bring them there.

In sessions she listens for what matters most in a person’s day-to-day life. She treats the client as the expert on their own story and helps them notice strengths they already have. Conversations focus on practical steps to manage stress, improve sleep, cope with change and rebuild confidence.

She pays attention to how family roles and parenting pressures affect mood and relationships. When people bring worries about communication, control, shame or guilt, she works on clearer ways to express needs and set boundaries. She also supports people coping with caregiver stress and ageing concerns.

Åse speaks English, German and Swedish. People considering therapy are invited to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Åse uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and clearer thinking. One approach helps people spot and change unhelpful thought patterns that fuel anxiety and low mood. This can make day-to-day stress easier to manage and improve sleep and motivation.

Another common approach looks at how behaviours and routines affect mood. Small changes to habits, activity levels and sleep schedules are explored to reduce overwhelm and increase energy. These techniques are useful for coping with depression, parenting strain and busy schedules.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with each person and agree what to try based on goals and what fits their life. That decision is collaborative and may change as therapy progresses.

Confirm the exact session formats available before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online appointments can make it simpler to fit therapy around parenting and work. They can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make it easier to schedule sessions between other commitments.
