About Esnas

Esnas Turnbull is a counsellor who uses practical, person-focused methods to help people face stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, and grief. She holds BACP membership and brings five years of professional experience to sessions. She aims to make the first step easier for people who feel uncertain about seeking help.

In sessions she creates a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk about painful memories and current struggles. She listens closely and helps people notice patterns in thoughts and behaviour.

Background and approach

Conversations often lead to small, manageable steps clients can try between meetings. Esnas uses a blend of approaches to match each person’s needs. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people accept difficult emotions and focus on valued actions.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is used to identify and change unhelpful thinking. Attachment-Based and Client-Centred ideas guide how she builds trust and tailors support. She also helps with issues related to relationships, such as attachment difficulties, abandonment, infidelity and divorce and separation.

Other focus areas include compassion fatigue, coping with disasters, dissociation, guilt and shame, and end-of-life or hospice concerns. Practical coping strategies are combined with exploration of meaning and values when that suits the client. Sessions are offered in English and can take place online by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging.

Esnas works with each person to set clear goals and practical next steps that fit their life.

Therapeutic approaches online and how they help

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choosing actions that match what matters most. This can help when anxiety, trauma or grief make it hard to move forward. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is useful for anxiety, stress and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships shape current trust and closeness, and it can be helpful for people struggling with abandonment or attachment issues.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work together with the client to decide which methods fit their goals, preferences and day-to-day life. That collaborative planning means techniques can be adjusted as progress is made or new priorities emerge.

Online sessions give practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a fuller interaction helps. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat or text-based messaging offer shorter check-ins and ongoing support between meetings. These options make it possible to keep work on therapy moving forward while juggling family, travel or work commitments.
