About Sheila
Sheila Burrowes is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with five years' experience. She works with people on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, and other difficulties that affect day-to-day life.
She uses an integrated style that treats each person as an individual. Sessions are paced to fit what the client can manage, and different techniques are used depending on what helps in that situation. Sheila sees both individuals and couples and adapts the conversation to practical goals and immediate worries.
Common reasons people come include low mood, anxiety, bereavement, trauma, problems with intimacy and issues connected to addiction or substance use. Sheila also helps with parenting strains, work and career concerns, and emotional responses to life changes like separation or illness. She acknowledges how isolation and shame can make reaching out harder and focuses on clear steps in the room.
Her approach draws on client-centred ideas, mindfulness, psychodynamic thinking, narrative techniques and Imago relationship work. That mix means sessions can include talking through personal history, noticing unhelpful patterns, learning grounding techniques, and practising new ways of relating to others.
Sheila offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. Costs vary with location and are arranged through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, follow the online matching process and schedule a first session.
How therapeutic approaches work for online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what the client says. It helps people clarify their thoughts and feel understood, which can reduce overwhelm and make decisions easier.Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and grounding practices to reduce distress in the moment. It can help with anxiety, stress and rumination by offering short exercises to try between sessions.
Psychodynamic Therapy looks at recurring patterns that come from past relationships and experience. It helps people notice how older relationship dynamics turn up in present life and gives options to change them.
Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs, and then agree together which methods to try. That shared planning means sessions can shift if something is not helping.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Registered or accredited professionals often use these practical benefits to help clients manage therapy alongside everyday life.
