About Norma

Norma Augustin is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who focuses on trauma, stress and anxiety. She uses practical approaches to help people cope with grief, depression and major life changes. Norma aims to make the first steps feel less daunting and to offer steady support along the way.

Norma has six years of professional experience. She draws on Trauma-Focused Therapy to address distress from past harm and on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.

Background and approach

She also includes psychodynamic ideas to notice patterns that repeat in relationships and choices. In sessions she keeps language simple and direct. Conversations centre on what is happening now and what changes would help most.

She works with each person to set clear, manageable goals and practical steps between sessions. Norma is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That credential is listed as BACP.

Sessions are offered in English and delivered online through video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. People often come to talk about anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, or feelings of being stuck. Norma also supports people dealing with attachment concerns, adoption and foster care issues, relationships affected by codependency, work on self-worth, and challenges related to prejudice and multicultural identity.

She helps individuals consider life purpose and money worries as part of the bigger picture. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and then sessions are scheduled according to the therapist's availability. Therapy uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

Ways of working Norma names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Trauma-informed and practical therapy online

Norma uses Trauma-Focused Therapy to help people process and reduce the impact of past harm. This approach looks at how traumatic events affect thoughts, feelings and daily functioning, and works to reduce triggers and distress.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression and stress because it breaks problems into steps to work on between sessions.

Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. Norma will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. Plans are revisited regularly so the work stays relevant and practical.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls let people use visual cues and more natural conversation, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit a break at work, and messaging or live chat can suit shorter check-ins and those who prefer typing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while keeping focus on progress and practical change.
