About Cherine
Cherine Ennis uses a person-centred approach to make people feel heard and respected from the first session. She is a BACP counsellor with six years of experience helping people who are struggling with anxiety, depression and panic attacks. Cherine keeps sessions straightforward and calm so people can talk about what matters most to them.
She combines client-centred work with practical Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) tools. That means she listens without judgement and also helps people try small changes that can ease symptoms.
How Cherine works
Cherine commonly helps with stress, grief, low self-esteem and coping with major life changes. Her background includes work with people affected by trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, eating and body image issues, and addiction-related problems. She also supports people dealing with parenting strain, anger, isolation and struggles around purpose or guilt.
Cherine adapts her approach to each person. Some sessions focus on talking through painful experiences. Others include CBT-style exercises to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.
Sessions are collaborative and paced to the individual’s needs. She works with adults who want practical ways to feel better and build resilience after setbacks. Cherine accepts clients in the United Kingdom and internationally, and offers phone, video and text-based session options to fit different lives.

How Cherine uses client-centred work and CBT online
Cherine blends client-centred therapy with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) when working online. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, empathy and building trust so people can speak openly about feelings and life events. It helps with emotional pain, grief and self-esteem by allowing the person to lead the conversation.CBT is a practical approach that looks at how thoughts and behaviours affect mood. Online CBT sessions can include identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, trying small behavioural experiments and setting short exercises between sessions to reduce anxiety or low mood.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Cherine will work with each person to decide whether more listening-based sessions or structured CBT tasks are helpful, and she adjusts the plan as goals change.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging. Video is useful for fuller conversation and visual cues, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins, and messaging works well for ongoing, flexible support. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and travel.
