Person-centred counsellor with practical tools

About Felicity

Felicity Woolsey works from a person-centred approach that puts the client at the heart of therapy. She uses open listening and gentle questions to help people make sense of their feelings and choices. Sessions are aimed at helping someone feel understood and able to choose different ways forward.

Felicity combines person-centred work with practical tools when needed. She draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to address unhelpful thoughts and on mindfulness to help with present-moment awareness. This blend is used to support people dealing with anxiety, depression, addictions and relationship strain.

She has five years of experience and has worked in substance misuse rehabilitation and mental health ward settings. That background includes running group therapy and using elements of dialectical behaviour approaches such as emotional regulation and distress tolerance skills.

Felicity is an individual member of the NCPS. She runs a private practice in the United Kingdom and works with people across a range of difficulties including eating and sleeping problems, bipolar mood challenges, parenting strain, and career stress.

Her approach is calm and non-judgemental. She encourages people to name what matters to them and to try manageable steps toward change. Practical coping strategies are introduced alongside the talking work when they match a person's goals.

How person-centred work and practical techniques translate online

Felicity uses a person-centred approach that focuses on listening, reflecting and helping people find their own solutions. This approach is about feeling heard and building a trusting working relationship, whether conversations happen face to face or remotely.

Cognitive behavioural therapy is used alongside person-centred work to spot patterns of thought and try small behaviour changes. It suits issues such as anxiety, low mood, stress and some addictive behaviours because it focuses on clear strategies and steps.

Mindfulness Therapy appears in sessions as simple exercises in bringing attention to the present moment and noticing thoughts without immediate reaction. This can help with emotional regulation, stress and sleeplessness by training awareness and calmer responses.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods best match a person's needs, goals and preferences, and will adjust the plan as work progresses.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel, reduce commute time and allow shorter check-ins when needed, helping therapy fit into everyday life without promising a particular delivery method.
