About Ursula
Ursula Grant is a counsellor and accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with 35 years' experience. She works with stress and anxiety, relationship concerns, grief, parenting issues, depression and trauma. She also helps with self-esteem, intimacy-related matters, career questions and coping with life changes.
She uses a mix of practical and reflective methods. That can mean looking at unhelpful thoughts and testing different responses. It can also mean talking through deeper patterns from the past that affect current relationships.
Ursula teaches assertiveness skills and helps people organise their home and work life to reduce overwhelm. She listens without judgement and offers a structured way to try new behaviours. Sessions aim to make small, manageable changes that fit daily life.
Her background includes 12 years working in the NHS and 20 years running a special needs school. She holds an MSc in Therapeutic Counselling and is a qualified supervisor of counsellors. Her BACP accreditation is noted as her professional registration.
Ursula is comfortable working with a wide range of concerns linked to family life and parenting, and with people affected by trauma and abuse. She accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first session through the online options button.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Ursula uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and then test practical alternatives. CBT is practical and goal-focused, helpful for anxiety, stress and low mood. She also draws on Client-Centred Therapy, which focuses on listening and reflecting to help clarify what matters most to the client and to build self-awareness.Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. She will discuss goals and preferences and suggest methods that suit those aims. Decisions about pace, homework and focus are made jointly so the plan fits the person's life and priorities.
The exact session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments around family and work commitments, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. If a session needs less bandwidth a phone call or shorter check-in can be arranged where appropriate. These practical choices help sessions slot into everyday routines rather than interrupt them.
