About Rose

Rose Ashton helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship problems, grief and depression. She uses a person-centred way of working and draws on several evidence-informed approaches to help people talk through current difficulties. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years of clinical experience.

Rose listens to what matters to each person and focuses on practical steps they can try between sessions. Conversations are aimed at making sense of feelings, improving communication, and finding small changes that reduce pressure in everyday life. She may also look at coping strategies for big life changes and the impact of loss.

Her practice includes work on abandonment and family of origin issues, blended family matters, communication problems, and separation or divorce. She also supports people dealing with caregiver stress, chronic illness or pain, eating and body image concerns, guilt and shame, and the effects of domestic violence.

Rose uses elements of Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) and Solution-Focused Therapy. This allows sessions to be conversational while also offering practical tools and steps to try. She adapts the way she works to the person’s situation rather than following a fixed recipe.

Sessions are conducted in English from the United Kingdom. She does not accept international clients. To get started, users are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.

How her therapeutic approaches work in remote sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what the person says to help them understand their own thoughts and feelings better. It is useful for people who want a conversational space to think things through.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for stress, anxiety and low mood where people want concrete steps to try between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rose will discuss what matters to the person and agree together which methods to use, matching approach to the person’s goals and preferences in a collaborative way.

Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not specified in her biography. Online work can help fit counselling into everyday life by reducing travel and making it easier to schedule regular sessions around work or family commitments. It can also allow shorter check-ins when time is limited or sessions without video when bandwidth is low.
