About Persistence

Persistence Magaya is a counsellor with a BACP credential who supports people feeling stuck, anxious, or disconnected. She focuses on low self-worth, unresolved trauma, relationship strains and major life changes. Her style is calm and direct, helping clients name what feels wrong and take small steps forward.

She offers a warm space where people can talk about painful memories and current struggles. Sessions aim to make sense of patterns that keep repeating and to build clearer choices for day-to-day life.

Background and approach

Practical ideas are combined with time to reflect on deeper feelings. Persistence uses several approaches to match each person’s needs. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, psychodynamic ideas and attachment-based work are woven together rather than applied rigidly.

This helps when someone needs concrete tools, wants to understand past influences, or needs better connection in relationships. She tends to work at a measured pace and encourages collaboration. Clients set goals together with the counsellor, and progress is reviewed regularly.

Small practical changes are balanced with attention to emotional healing. Sessions are offered online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging. People should expect conversational, approachable support that balances problem-solving and emotional processing.

Persistence aims to help people regain a clearer sense of direction and steadier coping in daily life.

How attachment, CBT and psychodynamic work online

Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current connection styles. Online sessions can explore patterns of closeness and distance, and help people practise new ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and coping skills. Psychodynamic therapy pays attention to recurring themes from the past that influence present choices and feelings, helping people understand why they repeat certain patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy itself. The counsellor will talk with the person about goals, life context and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made, so the work remains collaborative and flexible.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video works well for face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat or messaging can be useful for short check-ins, pacing emotion or written reflection. These options give practical flexibility and make it easier to fit therapy into daily life.
