About Colette

Colette Moran is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with seven years of professional experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, parenting strain, relationship concerns and issues around self‑esteem. Colette also supports people dealing with grief, addiction, anger and sleep problems.

She draws on an integrative approach, using different methods to match what feels most helpful. That means sessions can focus on feelings and attachment, exploring personal meaning, or listening in a client‑centred way. Colette has experience supporting neurodiversity concerns including ADHD, dyspraxia and dyslexia, and speaks from her own neurodiverse perspective.

Colette has worked with people in demanding jobs who manage high‑functioning anxiety. She also has experience with peri‑menopause and menopause related concerns, terminal illness and caregiving stress. Other areas she notices often include abandonment, attachment issues, blended family dynamics and communication difficulties.

In a session she typically helps people name what is most troubling, slow things down and try out new ways of talking about difficult feelings. Work can include looking at patterns that affect relationships, addressing overwhelm, and practical steps to improve sleep or manage anger.

She accepts international clients and conducts work in English. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule an initial appointment. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How sessions work

How Colette uses therapeutic approaches online

Colette commonly integrates attachment‑based ideas and emotionally focused work into her practice. Attachment‑based therapy looks at how early patterns of relating shape current relationships and reactions. It can help people understand recurring conflicts and feel clearer about closeness and boundaries.

Emotionally focused therapy concentrates on the experience of emotion in the moment and how that shapes interaction. It is often used to attend to strong feelings, improve emotional communication and reduce distress linked to relationship patterns. She also works in a client‑centred way, prioritising the person’s perspective and pacing sessions around what feels manageable.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Colette will discuss goals and preferences and then suggest which methods to try. This is a collaborative decision and may be revised as the work progresses.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, since specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow for shorter check‑ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people find remote work helpful for steady continuity while balancing parenting, work and caregiving responsibilities.
