About Angela
Angela Neary offers help for people facing a wide range of concerns including addictions, trauma and abuse, relationship difficulties, anxiety, depression and low self-esteem. She also supports people dealing with grief, stress, intimacy concerns, eating struggles, parenting strain, career questions and major life changes. Angela is named up front as a counsellor with two decades of experience.
She trained as a person-centred counsellor and holds BACP accreditation, which she gained after qualifying in 2005. Angela blends person-centred work with cognitive behavioural techniques and other practical approaches. Sessions tend to be warm, interactive and focused on what the person brings each week.
In practice she listens carefully and helps people find their own solutions. She does not use labels to define someone and aims to treat people with respect and understanding. That approach suits people who want a collaborative space to make changes.
Her background includes work alongside social care and social work teams, concentrating on mental health improvement in the community. That experience informs how she supports people through common and complex issues across adulthood.
Angela describes her role as accompanying people through their challenges and watching them build skills and insight. If someone chooses to start therapy she asks them to set goals together and shapes sessions around those aims.
Her practice is based in the United Kingdom and she works in English. She is open to working with international clients, and uses a subscription model for sessions that can be cancelled at any time.

How Angela uses therapeutic approaches online
Angela combines person-centred work with cognitive behavioural therapy and mindfulness in ways that aim to be practical and easy to follow. Person-centred work focuses on listening and creating a respectful space so a person can explore what matters most to them. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect and uses simple strategies to change patterns that cause distress. Mindfulness helps people notice their thoughts and feelings with less judgement and can reduce reactivity to stress.Finding the right way of working is part of therapy itself. Angela will discuss goals, needs and preferences with each person and together decide which approaches to try. The process is collaborative, with regular reviews to check what is helping and what might need to change.
If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the exact session options before booking because formats were not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that suits a working day. It can also make contact possible for people who live overseas or need to balance therapy with other commitments.
