Patricia Robbins, BACP, NCPS

Patricia Robbins is a counsellor with 18 years of clinical experience. She works in the United Kingdom and uses a pluralistic, integrative approach that lets her adapt sessions to each person. Patricia emphasises partnership, autonomy and a warm, non-judgemental style in her work.

Her practice focuses on everyday problems that can feel overwhelming. She helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, self‑esteem concerns, addictions and grief. Intimacy-related issues and relationship strain are also in scope, along with neurodiversity matters such as ADHD and autism where these affect daily life.

Patricia blends several approaches to suit the individual. You can expect elements of cognitive-behavioural techniques alongside humanistic and attachment-informed work. Sessions centre on clear conversations and practical steps as well as exploring patterns that keep problems repeating.

She is registered with BACP and NCPS, and draws on almost two decades of practice experience. That background supports work on things like trauma, bereavement, career worries, sleeping and eating concerns, and coping with major life changes.

People who come to Patricia often want a therapist who listens without stigma and helps them feel more in control. If you are looking to address emotional pain, improve communication, or manage difficult symptoms, she offers collaborative support to help you move forward.

Therapeutic approaches that translate well online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, often called ACT, focuses on helping people notice what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. It uses simple exercises to build willingness to face difficult thoughts and to act in useful ways, which can help with anxiety, depression and stress.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. It breaks problems into manageable pieces and offers practical tools for changing unhelpful patterns, making it useful for mood, sleeping and eating problems as well as some addiction‑related work.

Finding the right way of working is part of the process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and will adapt methods collaboratively. That means sessions can shift between talking, practical skill building and exploring attachment or relationship patterns according to what helps you most.
