About Patience
Patience Parker is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years of practice. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationships, grief, self-esteem, depression, addictions, family concerns, and trauma and abuse. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted.
Patience uses a client-centred way of working that focuses on the person's own experience. She listens without judgement and gives people space to set the pace and focus of each session. This approach can help when someone wants to talk through feelings about relationships, loss, or long-standing worries about themselves.
In sessions she encourages people to notice how they think and feel about themselves and others. She helps people build confidence in social situations and relationships by reflecting what clients say and asking questions that open new perspectives. Work may include talking about family of origin, attachment concerns, or issues linked to chronic pain and illness.
Practical topics such as communication problems, commitment worries, fertility stress, or difficulties with addiction are also addressed. Patience attends to emotions like guilt, shame, emptiness and grief and helps people look at patterns that cause repeated strain. Conversations focus on what the client finds most pressing.
People can expect a steady, listening approach where their choices guide the work. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule an initial session. Fees vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How client-centred work fits with online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy places the person's perspective at the centre of sessions. The therapist listens closely, reflects back what is said, and follows the client's lead on topics and pace. This approach helps with difficulties like anxiety, relationship strain, grief and issues linked to self-esteem because it focuses on what matters most to the individual.Finding the right way of working is part of the process. Patience will work collaboratively to identify how the client-centred approach can be applied to the person's goals and preferences. She will check in together about what helps and what needs to change as work continues.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to meet with a therapist from another location, which is helpful for international clients.
