About Ursula

Ursula Grant helps people with stress, anxiety and relationship concerns using counselling approaches she lists as Client-Centred, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Psychodynamic and Solution-Focused Therapy. She is an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has 35 years' experience.

Ursula works with low mood, grief and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. She also supports people facing parenting pressures, family conflict, work stress and career changes. Sessions focus on talking things through, building practical skills such as assertiveness, and finding ways to structure home and work life more effectively.

Her background includes long experience in education and therapeutic services. She chaired and ran a special needs school for 20 years and worked within NHS services for 12 years. She also holds an MSc in Therapeutic Counselling and supervises other counsellors.

In practice Ursula uses client-centred listening alongside techniques from cognitive behavioural and solution-focused approaches. She draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at recurring patterns that affect relationships and self-esteem. That mix is used to help people set short-term goals and develop coping strategies for day-to-day life.

Sessions tend to be practical and conversational. Clients can expect to work on clearer thinking about problems, small behaviour changes and skills such as assertiveness. The emphasis is on steady progress over time rather than quick fixes.

How her approaches work in online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and helping people make sense of their thoughts and feelings; it is useful for building self-esteem and feeling heard. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) works on the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and is often used for stress, anxiety and low mood. Psychodynamic Therapy looks at repeating patterns and early relationships that still affect current behaviour and can help with intimacy and relationship issues.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will explore a client's aims, current difficulties and preferences and then agree together which methods to try. That collaborative process can include setting short-term goals, practising new skills and reviewing progress regularly.

The original biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so please confirm options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals often use remote sessions to help people balance family life, work and therapy without committing to long journeys.
