About Monina

Monina Doubble is a counsellor registered with BACP and NCPS in the United Kingdom with nine years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulty, family matters, depression, parenting strain, grief, sleep problems and life changes. Sessions are offered in English and she also supports clients from outside the UK.

Her approach is integrative. She draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to address unhelpful thinking and behaviour. She uses client-centred methods to listen and reflect what matters to each person. Mindfulness is introduced to help with attention and coping when stress feels overwhelming.

Monina also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at longer-standing patterns and how past relationships affect current life. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) elements are used to focus on values and small, practical steps. These approaches are used together to suit the concern being worked on.

In practical terms she will talk through what you want to change and try simple tools in session. That might include thought records from CBT, short mindfulness exercises, or noticing relational patterns that repeat. Sessions aim to be straightforward and focused on everyday life challenges.

People commonly bring concerns about parenting pressure, blended family issues, attachment or abandonment fears, body image, chronic illness or caregiver stress. Monina is also experienced supporting those dealing with trauma, grief, anger, low self-esteem, career transitions and ADHD-related struggles.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions in line with those values. It is useful for coping with change, grief and situations that feel stuck. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and trying practical exercises to change thoughts and behaviour. It often helps with anxiety, low mood and sleep problems. Client-Centred Therapy concentrates on listening and reflecting what you say so you can make sense of your own priorities and next steps.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk with you about your goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try first. That collaborative choice can change as work progresses and as different issues come up.

The original biography did not list specific online session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around parenting, work and daily life. They allow for shorter check-ins when needed, or for people who prefer not to travel. The therapist will discuss practical arrangements when you schedule your first appointment.
