About Connor
Connor O'Donnell is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with a Postgraduate Diploma and three years of experience. He works from a person-centred approach and aims to create sessions where people feel heard and able to explore what matters to them. Connor focuses on straightforward, respectful conversations rather than directive instruction.
He helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. He also pays attention to concerns linked to ageing and geriatric issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, chronic illness and pain, and caregiver stress.
How Connor works
Practical problems like communication difficulties, control issues, and navigating separation also form part of his work. Connor describes therapy as a shared process. He treats the client as the expert on their own life and offers observations when they might be useful.
Sessions often involve noticing patterns in feelings and interactions and deciding together what to focus on next. He is used to checking in about how the work is going, adjusting the approach if needed. That might mean trying a different pace, shifting topics, or experimenting with how sessions are held.
The aim is steady, collaborative progress rather than quick fixes. People can expect calm attention, curiosity, and direct conversation about what is getting in the way of daily life. Connor’s style is practical and attentive, helping people make sense of difficult feelings and find workable next steps.

Online support options
Person-centred therapy online and how it helps
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening with care and accepting the client’s experience without judgement. The therapist follows the client’s lead, reflects what is said, and helps people find clarity about feelings and choices. This approach is often helpful for stress, anxiety, loss, and difficulties with self-esteem.Finding the right approach is part of the work and happens together. Connor will talk through options and try ways of working that suit the client’s needs and goals. The process is collaborative and adjustments are made as the relationship develops.
Online sessions can make therapy easier to fit into a busy life. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and reading visual cues. Phone sessions are lower bandwidth and can be easier on days when being on camera feels difficult. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins, people who prefer writing, or those who need flexible timing. These formats support regular contact and practical access to a registered or accredited professional from different locations.
