Odin Parmenter, BACP

Odin Parmenter is a counsellor who focuses on people coping with trauma, stress and relationship difficulties.

About Odin

Odin Parmenter is a counsellor who focuses on people coping with trauma, stress and relationship difficulties. He is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, known as BACP. Odin writes plainly and aims to make the first step feel manageable for someone who is worried or overwhelmed.

Odin offers short-term and longer-term work depending on a person’s aims. He listens for what matters most and then shapes sessions around those priorities.

Background and approach

He pays attention to how a person’s body and mood connect, and uses that understanding to help people feel steadier day to day. His practice covers anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, neurodiversity including ADHD, and a wide range of relationship and intimacy concerns.

He also supports people navigating grief, career questions, issues around sexual identity and gender, and difficulties with shame, control or codependency. Odin draws on several therapy approaches, including trauma-focused methods, attachment-based work, client-centred talking, cognitive behavioural strategies and emotionally-focused techniques. He combines these in ways that fit an individual rather than following one set method.

He works with adults from diverse backgrounds and accepts international clients. Sessions can be arranged by following the site process and completing a short questionnaire to match with him. The tone in his practice is calm, direct and compassionate as people work towards clearer days.

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

Approaches that suit online therapy and trauma work

Odin uses trauma-focused methods to help people process distressing memories and reduce their impact on daily life. This approach looks at how past events continue to affect thoughts, feelings and behaviour and introduces manageable ways to reduce that impact.

He also draws on attachment-based therapy, which examines how early relationships shape current patterns in closeness and trust. This work helps people understand relationship triggers and build different ways of connecting. In addition, client-centred therapy provides a steady, accepting space where the person leads the pace and focus of sessions.

Finding the right fit is a collaborative process. Odin will discuss your goals and preferences, try approaches that suit you, and check in about what feels helpful. Together you can adjust focus and methods as therapy progresses to match changing needs.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can suit quick check-ins, and messaging supports shorter, ongoing contact. These options help people fit therapy around work, travel or busy family life while maintaining continuity of care.
