About Cheryl

Cheryl Warren is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC). She has 16 years of professional experience helping people with family conflict, trauma and abuse, grief, eating difficulties and parenting concerns. Cheryl works with people who are struggling with social anxiety and phobia among other issues, offering practical help to manage everyday challenges.

Cheryl focuses on clear, straightforward conversation. She helps people talk through their thoughts and feelings and notices patterns that get in the way of day-to-day life. Sessions are calm and goal-oriented, with attention to small, practical steps a person can try between meetings.

Her background includes long-term work with loss, traumatic experiences and strained family relationships. That experience shapes how she responds to someone feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or criticised in social settings. Cheryl pays attention to attachment and communication patterns that affect how people relate to others.

In sessions she explores issues such as control, guilt and shame, isolation and workplace stress. She also works with people dealing with panic attacks and difficulties around eating. Conversations can include practical strategies, problem-solving and space to reflect on life goals and self-regard.

People can expect straightforward explanations of options and clear steps for moving forward. For anyone unsure about next steps, she asks clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to see how working together could look.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Two evidence-based techniques often used are cognitive and behavioural methods and attachment-informed work. Cognitive and behavioural methods look at the thoughts and behaviours that keep anxiety and panic going, and suggest concrete changes to try in daily life. Attachment-informed work explores relationship patterns and how early connections affect current social worries and interactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify what fits best based on a person’s needs, goals and preferences. That means the first few sessions may involve trying different ways of working and agreeing on practical steps to focus on together.

The original biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, avoid travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people attend from a quieter setting and can reduce the disruption of taking time away from work or family responsibilities.
