About Colette
Colette Robinson is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation and brings three years of professional experience supporting people with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. She also helps those coping with major life changes and the knock-on effects of illness and caregiving.
Colette aims to make sessions straightforward and down-to-earth. She creates an open space where people can say what they really feel.
Background and approach
Conversations focus on practical steps and on understanding patterns that cause pain or get in the way of change. Her work covers a wide range of concerns, including attachment and abandonment issues, communication and control struggles, and the emotional effects of divorce or blended-family life.
She also supports people dealing with guilt, shame, codependency and impulsivity, and those navigating alternative sexual cultures such as BDSM and kink. Sessions often look at coping strategies for stress and anxiety, and ways to rebuild confidence after trauma or loss. Colette listens closely, then helps people try small, manageable changes between sessions.
She encourages gradual progress rather than overnight fixes. Colette accepts clients from the UK and internationally and conducts sessions in English. People interested in working with her begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a session that fits their needs.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Colette uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on helping people manage symptoms and rebuild coping skills. One common approach she uses is practical skills work to reduce anxiety and stress; this involves simple tools and exercises clients can practise between sessions to help manage worry and tension. Another strand of her work focuses on trauma-informed counselling, which helps people understand how past harm affects current feelings and responses, and then try paced steps to regain a sense of safety and control.Finding the right approach is collaborative. Colette discusses options with each person and adapts methods to match their goals, preferences and life circumstances. She encourages people to test a few techniques and then stick with what feels most helpful rather than forcing a single method.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for many people. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation without travel, phone sessions suit those with slower internet or who prefer not to be on camera, and live chat or text messaging can provide shorter check-ins or ongoing support between longer sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving and other responsibilities while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
