About Cecile
Cecile Terrelonge is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with 18 years of practice. She offers person-centred counselling to children, young people and adults and lists concerns including anxiety, stress, trauma, relationship issues and LGBT matters. Sessions run for 50 minutes and are usually weekly at the same day and time.
Cecile focuses on what a person can do rather than labels. She listens without judging and encourages clients to talk in the ways they find easiest. She has run a voluntary youth counselling service supporting people aged 11 to 25, so she is familiar with young people’s pressures and routine changes such as shift work.
Her work includes support for those facing trauma, grief, addiction and mood concerns such as depression and bipolar. She also notes additional focus areas like attachment issues, abandonment, autism and avoidant personality patterns. Intimacy, body image and work-related stress are included among her areas of practice.
Cecile has experience supporting LGBT people and has worked with the Black Trans Foundation. She completed a two-day training through Gendered Intelligence on working alongside trans, gender diverse and questioning people and is listed on that therapist directory.
She offers both short-term and longer-term counselling. Sessions may be arranged to accommodate rota changes for shift-workers when agreed in advance. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How her approaches work online
Cecile uses attachment-based and person-centred approaches alongside emotionally-focused ideas. Attachment-based work looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people notice how past bonds influence present reactions. Person-centred counselling places the client’s experience at the centre and aims to help people find their own way forward by reflecting what they say. Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on recognising feelings in the moment and working on how emotions shape interaction and self-understanding.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Cecile will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative decision can change over time as the sessions reveal what helps most.
Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into everyday life. They can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins around work breaks, and make it simpler to see a counsellor when routines change.
