Sheila Burrowes, BACP

Sheila Burrowes is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who works with individuals and couples. She draws on several therapy styles to tailor sessions to each person's needs and pace, helping people address stress, anxiety, relationship strain and other concerns.

Sheila uses a blend of approaches rather than a single method. That lets her adapt to what a person brings into the room. Sessions focus on listening first, then finding practical ways forward that fit everyday life.

Common concerns brought to therapy include depression, grief, trauma and issues with intimacy. Sheila also supports people facing addictions, career stress, parenting challenges and questions around identity and self-esteem. She pays attention to complex situations such as blended family issues, bereavement alongside illness, and problems linked to domestic violence or separation.

Her practice incorporates Client-Centred Therapy, Narrative Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy alongside psychodynamic ideas and Imago relationship work. These approaches guide how conversations are framed and how change is explored, while keeping the pace comfortable for the person in front of her.

Sheila holds BACP credentials, indicating registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She has five years of clinical experience and offers sessions in English. International clients are accepted, and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How Sheila's approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and creating a non-judgemental space where people can bring what matters to them. This approach helps with stress, low mood and problems that need a steady, supportive conversation. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and grounding practices that reduce reactivity and help with anxiety and coping with change. Narrative Therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and helps separate the person from the problem, which can be useful for issues like addiction, shame or difficult life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sheila will talk with each person about their situation, goals and what feels comfortable. Together they decide which methods to try and can adjust as needed over time to find what helps most.

The therapist's biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. In general, online counselling can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also let people choose sessions that match their energy on a given day, such as visually focused meetings or quieter audio conversations. Registered and accredited professionals can adapt tools and exercises used in face-to-face work to an online setting to keep progress moving forward.
