About Adelle
Adelle Gaskell is an NCPS psychotherapist and counsellor with five years' experience based in the United Kingdom. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, grief and life changes. Sessions also cover parenting and family concerns, addictions, intimacy and self-esteem issues.
She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centred and psychodynamic ways of working. That means sessions often look at current thoughts and habits, while also considering past patterns that shape reactions. Sessions aim to make thinking and behaviour easier to change in everyday life.
Adelle describes a practical, conversational style. She listens to what feels most urgent, then suggests small, testable steps to try between sessions. Those steps might include noticing unhelpful thoughts, trying different responses in tricky situations, or short exercises to reduce anxiety and improve sleep.
She also uses solution-focused techniques to set clear, short-term goals and track progress. When deeper patterns are relevant, psychodynamic ideas help name repeated themes and how they began. The balance between approaches is decided with the person in the room.
People come for many reasons, including trauma, anger, eating or sleeping problems, workplace stress, bipolar mood management and compassion fatigue. Adelle offers a straightforward, practical approach aimed at helping people understand what they do now and what they can change next.
How CBT and related approaches work in online sessions
Adelle combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with client-centred and psychodynamic ideas. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing different responses; it is often used for anxiety, stress, sleep and mood problems. Client-centred work involves listening closely and reflecting what is important to the person, which helps build clarity about needs and goals. Psychodynamic ideas look at repeating relationship and emotional patterns and where they might have started, which can be helpful for longstanding difficulties.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Adelle will discuss what feels most useful and agree a plan with the person. That plan might prioritise short-term, practical changes or look at deeper patterns over time. Decisions about methods are made together based on needs, goals and preferences.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week and reduce travel time. It also allows for shorter check-ins when needed and can be adjusted if quieter surroundings or lower bandwidth are preferable.
