About Adrian

Adrian Robson offers calm, steady support for people facing stress, anxiety, loss, and the fallout of traumatic events. He creates a gentle, accepting space where clients can speak plainly about what’s worrying them. Sessions are paced to each person, so people can take things at a speed that feels manageable.

Adrian works from a person-centred foundation, which means he focuses on building a trusting relationship and listening without judgement. He also draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to help identify unhelpful thinking and practical ways to change it.

Background and approach

This mix lets him balance empathic listening with clear, actionable steps when they are useful. With over 17 years of experience, Adrian brings a background in physical health and somatic bodywork. That experience helps him notice how emotions can show up in the body and to invite gentle awareness of bodily sensations when that is helpful to the client.

He uses plain language and simple practices rather than technical jargon. People come to him for a wide range of concerns including grief, relationship and family problems, parenting pressures, sleep difficulties, low self-esteem, midlife and career questions, chronic illness and pain, and challenges after abuse or trauma. He aims to help people better understand themselves and find practical ways forward.

Sessions are collaborative and honest. Adrian encourages clients to try things between sessions and to notice what does and does not help. His approach is steady, respectful and focused on supporting real-life change.

How Adrian’s approaches translate to online therapy

Adrian blends a person-centred way of working with cognitive behavioural and somatic-informed ideas. Person-centred work focuses on building a respectful, non-judgemental relationship where the client’s experience guides the pace and content of sessions. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. Somatic-informed work pays attention to bodily sensations and can help when emotions appear through tension, sleep difficulties, chronic pain or sensations that are hard to put into words.

Finding the right mix of these approaches is a collaborative process. Adrian discusses options with clients, tries methods together, and adapts the plan based on what the person wants and what helps. He aims to keep choices practical and understandable so people can see what makes a difference between sessions.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and guided exercises, phone sessions suit those who need less bandwidth or prefer not to be on camera, live chat allows short check-ins, and messaging works well for ongoing reflection and quick support. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, family and health needs.
