Ceri Parry, BACP

Ceri Parry is a Registered Psychotherapist with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has five years' experience and a Masters level education, and she lists anxiety, stress, addiction, trauma and a wide range of other concerns among her focus areas.

Ceri uses clear, practical approaches in sessions. She draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Attachment-Based ideas and person-centred work to help people break patterns that cause distress. Sessions often include goal-setting, motivational techniques and strategies to manage panic, low mood or compulsive behaviours.

Her background includes over 15 years as a qualified nurse working in acute hospitals, community care and adult mental health services. That clinical experience shaped how she plans care and liaises with other services when that is helpful. She has also facilitated group work in addiction services at a private hospital.

Research forms part of her practice. Her Masters research looked at developmental topics such as attachment and how personality and attention affect social perception. Earlier university work covered pain management, CBT and comparisons of exercise with medication for depression.

In sessions Ceri offers focused work on things like imposter syndrome, perfectionism, binge eating, phone addiction, burnout and coping with chronic illness. She uses solution-focused tools alongside trauma-informed methods when needed. Clients can expect practical steps, reflection on patterns, and collaborative planning to try different ways forward.
