About Cheryl
Cheryl Hunton is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with five years of experience. She works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, grief, anger and life changes, and also supports people with parenting and family issues. Cheryl uses a client-centred style alongside other therapeutic methods to help people talk through what matters to them.
Cheryl draws mainly on Client-Centred Therapy, and also uses techniques from psychodynamic work and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. Sessions focus on listening, noticing patterns, and trying small practical steps that can make daily life easier. She helps people explore how past experiences may affect current thinking and behaviour, then looks at ways to test new approaches.
Her practice includes attention to relationship strain, communication problems, attachment and abandonment worries, and the impact of trauma, abuse or chronic illness. Cheryl also supports people dealing with career stress, compassion fatigue and ADHD-related concerns, using methods that suit each person. She aims to balance emotional reflection with concrete skills work.
Cheryl describes herself as pluralistic in approach, which means she can draw on different methods to meet a person’s needs. People meet to talk through current problems, try out coping ideas and review what helps over time. The work is conversational and practical, with space to consider deeper patterns when that is useful.
Sessions are carried out in English and follow the BACP standards Cheryl holds. To begin, readers are invited to check the online therapy options and complete the short questionnaire to book a first session.
How Cheryl uses therapy methods online
Cheryl uses Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy as core parts of her work. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the person, helping them find their own solutions. CBT offers practical tools to notice unhelpful thinking and try small behaviour changes to test new ways of coping.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Cheryl works collaboratively to identify which methods feel most useful based on a person’s current needs, goals and preferences. She will check in and adjust the mix of listening, reflection and practical techniques as the work progresses.
Confirm the session formats available before booking, as the biography does not list specific online options. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into a busy life - they can save travel time, make shorter check-ins easier to schedule, or avoid the need to travel for an appointment. Cheryl aims to match the mode of work to what helps someone engage and make steady progress.
