About Ursula

Ursula Grant is a counsellor with a calm, practical approach who helps people facing stress, anxiety and life changes. She listens without judgement and aims to build confidence and clearer thinking. Her style suits someone who wants straightforward tools and a steady presence during difficult times.

She works with common pressures from work, family and relationships. Sessions focus on everyday changes you can make, and on talking through feelings when life feels overwhelming.

Background and approach

Ursula also supports people coping with grief, parenting strains, depression, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related worries, low self-esteem and career concerns. Her background includes 35 years of experience and a Master of Counselling (MSc) in Therapeutic Counselling. She is an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

She spent 12 years working within the NHS and ran a special needs school for 20 years, so she knows how personal challenges affect work and home life. In sessions she mixes Client-Centred listening with practical Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) techniques, some psychodynamic thinking about past patterns, and solution-focused ideas to set small achievable goals.

She teaches assertiveness skills and can help organise home or work routines to reduce overwhelm. Ursula offers a steady, non-judgemental space where people can name what is hard and try practical steps to feel better. She welcomes those who want clear, achievable change alongside time to be heard.

How Ursula blends therapeutic approaches online

Ursula uses Client-Centred Therapy to create a listening, non-judgemental space where people can talk at their own pace. This approach helps when someone mainly needs to be heard and to build confidence in their own thinking.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact. CBT offers practical exercises to reduce anxiety, change unhelpful thinking and build coping steps for day-to-day life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work and is decided together. The therapist will check your goals and preferences and suggest a mix of methods that fit your needs. That collaborative process can change as you progress and as new issues come up.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video calls are useful when face-to-face conversation matters, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging suits short check-ins or written reflection. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments.
