About Graham
Graham Morris is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years' experience. He works with people who are facing relationship and family strains, low self-esteem, career concerns and major life changes. He lists guilt and shame among the themes he addresses and uses this focus to guide conversations where appropriate.
Graham keeps sessions straightforward. He listens to what has led someone to seek help and then talks through options for managing current difficulties. He uses Client-Centred Therapy to prioritise the client's perspective and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to look at thinking and behaviour patterns related to guilt and shame.
His background includes counselling in universities and high schools, and work with charities. That experience has involved people from a variety of cultural and ethnic backgrounds and different sexual orientations. He has supported people with bereavement, depression, anxiety, burnout and the effects of trauma.
Graham also works with practical life pressures such as workplace bullying, caregiving stress, chronic illness and questions of identity. He notes how past events can shape present feelings and pays attention to those links during sessions. He describes his practice as trauma-informed, emphasising safety, trust, choice and collaboration.
Sessions involve talking through what is happening now, exploring unhelpful patterns, and trying small changes to thinking or behaviour where useful. He encourages people to notice what helps and what does not, and to adjust the approach as work proceeds.
How his approaches are used in online work
Graham works with two clear approaches that often suit people dealing with guilt and shame. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening to the person's own perspective and making space for their priorities; it helps when someone needs to be heard and to clarify what matters to them. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the thoughts and actions that keep painful feelings going and uses practical exercises to try different responses.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. He will discuss goals, preferences and what feels helpful, and then suggest ways of combining listening and practical techniques. That decision is collaborative and can be adjusted as sessions continue.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm which online options are available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, or reduce travel time. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises and homework for remote sessions so the work still focuses on changing unhelpful patterns and noticing what shifts over time.
