Angela Garlick, BACP

Angela Garlick is a counsellor who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief and trauma. She works with clients facing depression, sleep problems, parenting strain, compassion fatigue, ADHD and major life changes. Angela is listed for Supporting carers and understands the pressures that come from caring roles. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space where people can say what they are feeling. Angela uses a person-centred way of working that focuses on listening and respect. Sessions are aimed at helping people notice what matters to them and find steps that fit their life. Her approach draws on several therapies to suit different needs. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at patterns of thought and behaviour that keep problems going. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people accept difficult emotions while choosing values-based actions. Mindfulness work brings simple attention practices into daily routines. Angela has four years of professional experience and holds BACP accreditation, which reflects professional registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She works in the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English. Taking the first step can feel hard, and Angela says she will work alongside each person to shape the work. She focuses on practical next steps, clearer thinking and building small changes that make life easier. If you are a carer feeling worn down, she can help you talk through the strain and plan coping steps.

How these approaches work in online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck by them, then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and coping with life changes.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. It often helps with low mood, worry and sleep difficulties.

Mindfulness work teaches simple attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and support calmer thinking in daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Angela will work collaboratively to decide which methods suit a person’s needs, goals and preferences. She adapts techniques so they fit each person's situation rather than using a single prescribed method.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm the currently offered options when booking. Online therapy can help fit support into busy days, reduce travel time and make it easier to schedule short check-ins around work or caring duties. It can also allow therapists to share worksheets and mindfulness exercises that clients can use between sessions.
