About Angela

Angela Neild is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with 20 years of experience. She often works with stress, anxiety, depression and relationship concerns, and also supports people facing addictions, grief and self-esteem difficulties. Angela commonly addresses issues connected to trauma and abuse, intimacy, sleep and eating, and people exploring identity and LGBT matters.

Her way of working is practical and conversational. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside attachment-based and client-centred approaches to notice patterns of thinking and behaviour. Sessions focus on spotting unhelpful thoughts, trying small changes, and reviewing what helps in day-to-day life.

Angela trained at postgraduate level, holding a PG Diploma in Advanced Counselling and Psychotherapy and a Level 7 PGCert in Counselling Supervision. She also has a BA (Hons) in Abuse Studies. Those qualifications inform how she organises sessions and thinks about risk and relationship issues.

People can expect a straightforward session structure with time to talk and time for practical strategies. Angela keeps up to date with current research and adapts methods to what each person needs. She encourages short experiments between sessions to test different ways of coping.

Sessions are carried out in English and are geared towards adults seeking help with the concerns listed above. International clients are not accepted, so bookings are for people based in the United Kingdom.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Angela integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as a practical way to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep and many everyday stress problems because it breaks issues into clear steps that can be tested in real life.

She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationship patterns shape current reactions. This helps people understand why they respond strongly in close relationships and to try different ways of connecting. In addition she draws on a client-centred stance, giving space for people to lead the conversation while the counsellor reflects and clarifies what matters most to them.

Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. The counsellor will discuss goals, try methods, and review what helps most. That way sessions can shift over time to match changing needs and preferences.

Format details are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current session options before booking. Many people find online work helpful because it can fit around work, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Practical benefits include being able to schedule sessions more easily and to practise strategies between meetings.
