About Patience
Patience Parker is a counsellor who offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people feeling stuck or overwhelmed. She uses simple, steady support to help clients untangle stress, anxiety, low mood and relationship worries. Patience welcomes straightforward conversation and focuses on what matters to the person in front of her.
She works using Client-Centred Therapy, so sessions centre on listening and reflecting rather than directing. That means the person sets the pace and topics, and the counsellor helps clarify feelings and choices. This approach can help with grief, self-esteem issues, addiction concerns and the emotional impact of trauma and abuse.
Patience has four years of experience working with adults who want to change how they relate to themselves and others. She is registered with the BACP, which is shown as BACP in her credentials. Her practice pays attention to attachment, body image and caregiver stress among other areas of focus.
People often come with practical problems such as communication difficulties, control issues, divorce and separation, or struggles with chronic illness and pain. Patience also works with matters like fertility stress, family of origin issues, guilt, shame and forgiveness. She aims to support people to build more confidence in their relationships and in themselves.

How client-centred counselling fits into online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and supporting a person's own pace for change. In practice this means the counsellor reflects what the person says, helps clarify feelings and supports the person's own decisions about next steps. This approach is often helpful for worries about self-esteem, relationship difficulties, grief and anxiety.Patience's style is collaborative. She will work with each person to decide which way of working feels right. That may mean trying different focuses in early sessions and agreeing together how to proceed based on needs and goals.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also suit people who prefer to meet from another location or who need to manage energy around chronic illness. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often find that a flexible approach helps clients keep therapy practical and sustainable.
