About Ingrid
Ingrid Koehler is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma and grief. She supports those dealing with intimacy issues, eating concerns, anger, low self-esteem and major life changes. Ingrid presents as calm and compassionate and aims to make it easier to talk about painful things.
She uses a client-centred approach that keeps the person’s experience at the heart of sessions. Ingrid also draws on attachment-based ideas and trauma-focused ways of working to understand how past hurts affect present feelings and relationships. Sessions focus on listening, uncovering patterns, and finding practical steps to cope day to day.
Ingrid frames therapy as a process of making sense of what has happened and reconnecting with inner strengths. She invites people to reflect on their story and on feelings such as shame, guilt, rage, numbness or overwhelming sadness. The aim is to help people notice behaviours that no longer serve them and to try different ways of responding.
Her background includes 14 years of professional experience and prior work in nursing within cancer services and clinical trials in the NHS. Ingrid is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
She offers a respectful, steady presence and tailors conversations to each person’s needs. For someone who feels stuck, hurt or unsure, she works to create space to notice patterns and to begin practical changes that fit everyday life.
How these approaches work online
Client-centred therapy focuses on the person’s own experience, giving space to talk and to be heard without judgement; it can help people who feel overwhelmed, stuck or unsure how to move forward. Attachment-based therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early bonds shape current needs and reactions, which can be useful for intimacy, trust and commitment issues. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people pay attention to emotions in the moment and to reshape interactions in relationships, which is often helpful for partners and for people dealing with relationship hurt.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to concerns, goals and preferences and then suggest ways of working. That choice is collaborative and may change as therapy progresses to fit what is most helpful.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into everyday life, such as arranging appointments around work, health appointments or family commitments. You may find shorter check-ins, audio-only conversations or sessions that avoid video useful for lower bandwidth or quieter surroundings; please confirm which formats are offered before booking. Many people find remote sessions allow steady continuity of care when travel or location are a challenge and support regular progress without lengthy journeys.
