About Cherine

Cherine Ennis is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with six years of experience. She works with adults on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, panic attacks and grief, and with people facing challenges around relationships, parenting and family matters.

Cherine uses a client-centred approach that encourages people to talk through what matters to them. She combines this with practical elements from cognitive behavioural therapy, so sessions can include looking at unhelpful thinking patterns and trying new ways of coping.

She has experience supporting people who are coping with loss, cultural issues, domestic abuse and the practical effects of neurodiversity. Her background includes work with people facing postpartum depression, addictions, eating concerns and intimacy-related issues.

In sessions she focuses on building a working relationship that helps people follow through with a plan of small steps. That might mean setting short practical goals, trying new coping strategies between meetings, or practicing different ways of communicating at home.

Cherine also supports people dealing with guilt, shame, isolation and the effects of major life changes. She describes her work as professional and person-centred, with an emphasis on respect and steady progress.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. The service runs on a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time and cost can vary by location.

How sessions work

How her approaches are used in online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience. The therapist reflects what she hears and helps people clarify their own priorities and choices. This approach is often used when someone needs space to talk about loss, family strain or feelings of low self-worth.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses simple exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and to try different ways of coping. CBT can be useful for anxiety, panic attacks, low mood and problem behaviours.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Cherine will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. That means sessions may include listening, practical tasks between meetings, or short exercises to change thinking patterns.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the available options before booking.Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. They also let people take an active role in planning how sessions fit around parenting and day-to-day life.
