About Cheryl
Cheryl Hunton is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. She works with adults on issues such as stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, parenting strain, grief, and relationship problems. Cheryl also supports people dealing with trauma, anger, ADHD and challenges tied to family life.
Her approach is rooted in Client-Centred Therapy. Cheryl draws on psychodynamic ideas and uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques when useful. Sessions focus on what the client brings and on practical steps that feel manageable in everyday life.
Cheryl aims to listen without judgement and to help people talk through painful feelings. She pays attention to patterns from early relationships, and to how thoughts and behaviours keep problems going. That mix can help with issues like attachment wounds, abandonment feelings, and struggles with commitment or communication.
She also works with concerns such as body image, chronic illness or caregiver stress, blended family issues, dissociation, and domestic violence aftermath. Sessions may address career stress, compassion fatigue, and feelings of emptiness or disconnection.
To begin, Cheryl asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. The service uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, with fees that vary by location.
How her approaches translate to online work
Cheryl uses Client-Centred Therapy, which focuses on listening and reflecting what a person says so they can clarify their own thoughts and feelings. This approach helps when someone is carrying guilt, shame, or emotional confusion and needs a steady listener.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and to try practical steps that can reduce stress or anxiety. CBT methods can be useful for tackling guilt-driven rumination or changing behaviours that feed low self-esteem.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Cheryl will collaborate with each person to decide which methods feel most helpful, based on their goals and preferences. That can mean using more reflective, psychodynamic attention at times, and more skills-based CBT at others.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, allow quieter surroundings, and remove travel time. They can also permit shorter check-ins on tougher days or let someone avoid being on camera when that is preferable.
