About Colette

Colette Langridge works with stress, anxiety, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, intimacy concerns, parenting and related pressures. She uses an integrative counselling approach and draws on Attachment-Based, Client-Centred, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness and Psychodynamic ideas. Colette is registered with NCPS and has 12 years' experience in the field.

Colette qualified in 2012 and has spent much of her practice supporting people after relational and sexual trauma and abuse. She has more than six years of focused work with survivors, offering one-to-one sessions for those affected by sexual violence, childhood abuse and other traumatic experiences. She also supports people coping with anxiety, depression and stress related to life transitions.

Her style combines talking therapies with attention to bodily responses. Sessions may include exploring early relationships and patterns, noticing how the body holds distress, and learning simple sensorimotor techniques alongside mindfulness and cognitive strategies. The emphasis is on a respectful therapeutic relationship and making sense of difficulties together.

Colette works with a wide range of concerns beyond trauma, such as parenting strain, compassion fatigue, chronic pain and communication problems. She also addresses issues linked to attachment, abandonment, commitment and blended family dynamics. Practical coping skills and clearer communication are common outcomes of her work.

Sessions are offered in English from the United Kingdom. Colette accepts international clients and brings a mix of reflective and practical tools to help people manage emotions, rebuild confidence and plan next steps.

How Colette uses therapy approaches online

Colette commonly uses Attachment-Based approaches and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy online. Attachment-Based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and can help with relationship, intimacy and attachment issues. CBT focuses on practical steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviour, which is useful for anxiety, depression and coping with life changes.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Colette will discuss goals and preferences and together they will choose which approaches to try. This is a collaborative process and approaches can be adjusted as therapy progresses.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so check the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work, family or caring responsibilities, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some formats may also be better when bandwidth is limited or when a quieter, low-visual option is preferred.
