About Colette

Colette Moran is a counsellor who supports people facing a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, addictions and intimacy-related issues. She also works with grief, compassion fatigue, sleep problems and relationship strain, and lists sexual dysfunction among her focus areas. Colette brings seven years of counselling experience in the United Kingdom and holds BACP registration.

Colette uses a flexible, integrative style that adapts to what each person brings. She aims to keep sessions straightforward and practical, helping people find steps they can use between meetings. Conversations are paced to match the client, with attention to feelings, attachment patterns and personal meaning.

Her work often draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early bonds shape current relationships. Emotionally-Focused Therapy techniques are used to help people notice and work with strong emotions in the moment. A client-centred approach guides the way she listens and responds, keeping the person’s goals central.

Colette has experience supporting people with neurodiversity, including ADHD, dyspraxia and dyslexia, and identifies as neurodiverse herself. She has also worked with people in demanding jobs who live with functioning anxiety.

Practical issues such as career stress, caregiver strain, chronic illness and bereavement are addressed alongside emotional concerns. Colette describes work on boundaries, communication and coping strategies as part of therapy when those areas are needed.

How Colette’s Approaches Work Online

Colette uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach helps when people notice repeating conflicts, trust issues or difficulties with closeness.

She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy, which focuses on recognising and working with strong emotions as they arise. EFT-style work can help people understand and change unhelpful emotional responses in relationships and intimacy.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be decided together. The therapist will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. This collaborative planning helps adjust the work as you learn what fits best.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm current session options before booking as formats are not detailed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and offer shorter check-ins when needed. It can also allow sessions without being on camera if someone prefers audio only, or suit quieter times that fit around work or caregiving. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists, can help you weigh these practical choices when you start.
