Norma Augustin, BACP

Norma Augustin is a counsellor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and depression. She uses clear, practical conversations to support people taking the first steps toward change. Norma has worked in the United Kingdom for six years and draws on that experience in sessions.

Norma likes to build an open space where clients can talk about thoughts and feelings without fear of judgement. She aims to make each meeting straightforward and calm. People are encouraged to set small goals they can try between sessions.

Her work combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, psychodynamic ideas and trauma-focused approaches. That mix lets her look at current thinking and behaviour while also understanding patterns from the past. Sessions often include talking, noticing patterns, and practising small changes.

Norma has a BACP credential, which indicates her registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She brings six years of practical experience to common problems such as grief, life changes and coping after traumatic events.

Norma pays attention to cultural and discrimination issues and helps people facing money worries, relationship communication problems, and troubles around adoption or attachment. The aim is steady progress at a pace that feels manageable to the individual.

How Norma's approaches work for online therapy

Norma uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and trauma-focused therapy as core approaches. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small changes in behaviour to reduce anxiety and depression. Trauma-Focused Therapy pays attention to how past traumatic events affect present feelings and reactions, and works on gradual processing and coping strategies.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Norma will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and agree a way forward. That conversation helps decide which methods to focus on and how to pace the work so it feels manageable.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life and avoid travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions that suit quieter surroundings or lower bandwidth needs. The site requires you to confirm the current session options before booking so you know which formats are available for scheduling.
