Frederick Roberts, BACP

Frederick Roberts is a UK-based integrative therapist working with adults and young adults, bringing nine years of professional experience to his practice. He supports people facing depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, low motivation, self-esteem struggles, OCD, and ADHD, and he also works with those who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. Frederick adopts a warm, interactive manner, and he prioritizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in every session. He aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore thoughts and feelings at their own pace.

His practice draws on a blend of therapeutic methods, including person-centered work, cognitive-behavioural techniques, psychodynamic ideas, rational emotive approaches, and humanistic principles. Sessions are tailored to each individual, with dialogue and treatment plans adapted to meet specific needs and goals. Frederick describes the first steps toward change as an act of courage, and he offers steady encouragement and practical support as clients begin that journey.

He holds BACP accreditation - membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - reflecting his commitment to professional standards and ongoing development as a therapist.

Therapeutic approaches for online sessions

Frederick integrates several evidence-informed approaches to suit different needs. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new behaviours to reduce symptoms such as anxiety, low mood, and compulsive thinking. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current patterns of relating - it can be especially helpful for people struggling with trust, abandonment, and relationship difficulties. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, non-directive stance where the therapist supports the client to find their own solutions; this approach is useful for building self-esteem, processing grief, and addressing life transitions.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Frederick will work with each client to clarify goals, preferences, and practical needs, and he will adapt methods as the work progresses so the approach fits the person rather than forcing the person to fit a single model.

Online therapy with Frederick is offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, which makes scheduling more flexible and allows work to continue from different locations. These options can make it easier to fit therapy around busy lives, reduce travel time, and maintain continuity of care for clients who move or live abroad.
