About Angela
Angela Neary is a counsellor with BACP accreditation and more than 20 years' experience. She works with people facing addiction, trauma and abuse, depression, anxiety and relationship problems. Her style is open and warm, and she aims to treat people with respect and without labels.
Angela trained as a person-centred counsellor, graduating in 2005, and has worked in community mental health roles alongside social care and social work teams. That background means she is used to helping people with a wide range of life stages and challenges.
Background and approach
She has supported adults across a broad age range in settings from clinics to community services. Her sessions are interactive and grounded in listening. She encourages people to find their own answers while offering practical techniques when they help.
Many people work on self-esteem, grief, parenting strain, intimacy and communication problems in her sessions. Angela combines person-centred work with cognitive behavioural and trauma-focused ideas. That mix means conversations focus both on understanding patterns and on small changes that can ease distress.
Mindfulness and psychodynamic thinking also inform how she helps people reflect on past experiences and current coping. She supports people with a wide set of concerns including eating issues, bipolar mood difficulties, chronic health strain and career stress. Sessions are offered in English and she works with international clients when that suits a person’s needs.
Angela aims to accompany people through change and to help them build practical ways forward.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online support
Angela combines Trauma-Focused Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy in ways that work well online. Trauma-Focused Therapy focuses on understanding and gently processing difficult experiences, helping people reduce the hold those memories have on daily life. Client-Centred Therapy prioritises listening and empathy, giving people a non-judgemental space to speak and be heard while they explore what matters to them.Finding the best way forward is a collaborative process. Angela will discuss goals and preferences with each person and adapt her blend of approaches to suit their needs. That exploration is part of early sessions and helps shape a plan that feels right for the individual.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, live chat can suit short check-ins, and messaging lets someone share thoughts between appointments. These options make it easier to fit counselling around work, caregiving or mobility limits while keeping the focus on practical progress and emotional understanding.
