About Cherelle
Cherelle Medas is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who aims to help people make sense of stressful life changes. She holds BACP accreditation, and brings four years of professional experience to her practice. Cherelle offers a calm, steady presence for people feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, low mood, or difficult relationships.
She meets each person where they are and listens without judgement. Sessions focus on what matters to the individual, whether it is building coping skills, improving self-esteem, or working through grief.
How Cherelle works
Cherelle draws on approaches that suit each person rather than using a one-size-fits-all method. Her work often covers practical everyday problems such as panic attacks, compassion fatigue, parenting strain, career worries, and family conflict. She also supports people facing deeper issues like abandonment, attachment struggles, guilt and shame, or a sense of emptiness.
Conversations look at patterns, feelings and choices so people can make clearer decisions. Cherelle uses tools from client-centred therapy and cognitive behavioural therapy alongside existential and psychodynamic ideas when they fit the situation. This mix helps people see where thoughts and habits are causing pain and how to try new ways of coping.
Sessions are tailored to the person and their goals. People can expect an open, practical approach that balances emotional understanding with steps to feel better day to day. Cherelle works with individuals interested in personal development, coping skills, and moving towards clearer, more confident decisions.

Online support options
Approaches that suit online counselling
Client-centred therapy puts the person at the heart of sessions by offering understanding and empathy. It helps people feel heard and helps them find their own solutions to issues like low self-esteem, grief or relationship worries.Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses practical techniques to reduce anxiety, manage panic attacks and change unhelpful thinking patterns through short exercises and homework.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Cherelle will discuss different methods and choose what fits the individual's goals, preferences and current needs. The process is collaborative so people can try things and adjust as they go.
Online therapy offers flexibility with several ways to connect. Video calls are good for a full conversational session; phone sessions work well when video is not convenient or bandwidth is low. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins or ongoing written support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit counselling around work, caregiving or other commitments while keeping therapy consistent and accessible.
