Bechan Parry, BACP

Bechan Parry has ten years of experience working in mental health and counselling across different settings in the United Kingdom. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Bechan aims to make starting therapy feel manageable and approachable for people who are nervous about the process.

She invites clients to bring whatever they need to talk about and listens without judgement. Sessions focus on understanding what matters most to each person and on practical steps they can take between meetings. Bechan adapts her style to suit individual needs rather than following a one-size-fits-all plan.

Her work covers a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and trauma and abuse. She also supports people struggling with relationship and intimacy-related issues, addictions, eating and sleeping problems, anger, self-esteem, and parenting strain. Additional focus areas include ADHD, attachment issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, and chronic illness and pain.

Bechan uses a mix of therapies to match a client’s goals. She draws on client-centred ways of working to prioritise the person’s experience, and uses cognitive behavioural ideas to address unhelpful thoughts and patterns. Narrative and solution-focused approaches are brought in to help people reframe difficulties and set clear, achievable steps.

Sessions are offered in English and take place in the United Kingdom. The therapist asks people to select the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to availability. Fees vary with location and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

Therapeutic approaches used in online work

Bechan commonly uses client-centred work, cognitive behavioural ideas, and solution-focused techniques in her practice. Client-centred work means the therapist focuses on the person’s experience and follows their lead, which helps people feel heard and understood and supports exploration of feelings and values. Cognitive behavioural techniques look at thoughts, feelings and behaviours together to identify patterns and try out different ways of responding to reduce distress. Solution-focused methods concentrate on setting clear, achievable goals and building on small steps that make a practical difference.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Bechan will discuss different ways of working with each person and make decisions together based on their needs, goals and preferences. She adapts methods over time so sessions match what is helpful in practice rather than sticking to a fixed model.

Session formats are not listed here, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and making it possible to join from wherever you are. It can also suit people who prefer talking without being on camera or who need quieter surroundings and flexible scheduling.
