About Rochelle
Rochelle Armstrong is a counsellor and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She supports adults dealing with anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, identity concerns and the long shadow of past trauma. Rochelle pays attention to cultural identity and mixed-identity experiences, and aims to help people feel seen and more grounded in themselves.
Rochelle listens with warmth and without judgement. She starts by helping people talk through what feels most urgent. Then she works with them to notice patterns that keep repeating - in thoughts, feelings and relationships. Sessions move at the client’s pace and focus on practical next steps as well as emotional understanding.
Her approach is rooted in client-centred therapy, which means the person in the room leads the pace and focus of the work. Rochelle also uses attachment-informed ideas to look at relationship patterns and cognitive behavioural techniques to challenge unhelpful thinking where useful. She may bring in reflective, meaning-focused exploration to help people reconnect with their values and identity.
Rochelle has seven years of clinical experience and holds a degree in counselling. She also delivers talks and workshops on equality, diversity and inclusion, particularly around identity and belonging. Her practice aims to blend practical coping tools with deeper work on belonging, self-compassion and healing from past wounds.
People who work with her often want clearer self-understanding, less overwhelm, and steadier relationships. Rochelle supports each person to build on their strengths and to make changes that feel sustainable and authentic.
How Rochelle’s approaches work in online counselling
Client-centred therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of the work. The counsellor follows what matters to the client, offers empathic listening, and helps people find their own solutions and direction. This approach can help with identity confusion, low self-esteem and feeling overwhelmed.Attachment-informed therapy looks at patterns in relationships and emotional safety. It helps people understand why they react a certain way in close relationships and practises new ways of relating that feel more secure and steady.
Cognitive behavioural ideas focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small, practical steps. This can reduce anxiety and help people break cycles of avoidance or self-criticism.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs and preferences, and will adapt as progress is made.
If you are considering online therapy, check the current session options before booking. Confirm which formats are offered and how scheduling works. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life, help reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed.
