Corina Cullen, NCPS

Corina Cullen is a counsellor who focuses on helping carers and other people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting challenges and depression. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk through what feels overwhelming and find more workable ways forward. Corina uses straightforward language and aims to make sessions feel practical and safe for people who are tired or unsure where to start.

Her style draws on client-centred counselling, which puts the person's experience at the centre of the work. She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current feelings and patterns. Corina blends different approaches to suit each person rather than following a single technique.

Before private practice she worked in a sixth form college and at an agency supporting women affected by domestic violence, abuse and addictions. That background informs how she responds to trauma, loss and parenting stress. She has three years' experience in counselling and holds the NCPS credential.

In sessions she helps people understand feelings like shame, guilt, panic and loneliness. She also supports those dealing with abandonment, attachment wounds, communication breakdowns, control issues and the pressures of being a carer. The aim is to increase emotional awareness and build better ways of relating to others.

Corina offers online, telephone and walk-and-talk sessions. Prospective clients can use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and then schedule according to therapist availability. The subscription model used for sessions can be cancelled at any time.

How Corina uses attachment and client-centred ideas online

Corina draws on client-centred counselling, which centres the person's own experience and pace. In practice this means the therapist listens closely, reflects what is said and helps clients make their own choices about what to address and how to change.

She also uses attachment-based therapy to look at how early relationships shape emotional responses and patterns in close relationships. This approach helps when trust, intimacy or regulation feel difficult, and it can be helpful for stress related to caregiving or past abuse.

Finding the best way to work together is a shared process. Corina will discuss each person's needs, goals and preferences and adapt her approach as therapy progresses. Clients and the counsellor decide together what to focus on and which methods feel most useful.

Practical benefits of online and remote sessions include fitting therapy into a busy routine and reducing travel time. Corina offers online, telephone and walk-and-talk options, so people can choose what suits them best; please confirm current session options before booking. Remote sessions can make it easier to schedule shorter check-ins, attend during a work break, or avoid commuting while still keeping therapy part of everyday life.
