About Myfanwy
Myfanwy Bower is an NCPS counsellor based in the United Kingdom with ten years' experience. She works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, grief, relationships, self-esteem, parenting and family issues. Her practice also addresses trauma and abuse, intimacy-related problems, eating concerns, anger, career pressures and depression.
She uses a person-centred approach that keeps the client's experience central. That means sessions begin by listening to what matters most to the person. Myfanwy also draws on mindfulness techniques to help people notice and manage difficult thoughts and feelings in everyday life.
Solution-focused ideas appear alongside those methods to help people set small, practical goals. She and the client then identify steps to move toward those goals. This can suit someone who wants short-term direction as well as reflective talk.
Myfanwy aims to work collaboratively, helping each person decide whether they want goals and what those goals should look like. She talks through feelings, difficulties and practical changes rather than making assumptions about problems or solutions.
Her background includes supporting people with a wide range of relational and emotional concerns, including issues linked to parenting, caregiver stress, abandonment, divorce, guilt and shame. Sessions are conducted in English and she does not accept international clients.
How sessions work
How her approaches work for online sessions
Myfanwy uses a person-centred way of working that starts with careful listening and reflecting. This approach helps people feel heard and identify what matters most to them, which can be useful for relationship, parenting and family-related stress.She also draws on mindfulness techniques to help notice thoughts and bodily reactions. Mindfulness can support managing anxiety, low mood and strong emotions by building simple attention skills for everyday life.
Solution-focused work is used to set small, practical goals and identify next steps. That approach suits people who want focused change or clearer direction alongside reflective conversation.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss the person's situation, goals and preferences and agree which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and can change over time as needs shift.
