About Holly

Holly Forde is an accredited counsellor with NCPS recognition and a BA (Hons) in Integrative Counselling, an undergraduate honours degree focused on combining therapeutic approaches. Her career has included supporting people through the charity Mind, working in private practice, and a current part-time role within the NHS as a Renal Counsellor where she supports patients living with chronic kidney disease.

She has practical experience helping people manage stress and anxiety, cope with chronic illness, and work through grief, relationship difficulties, motivation challenges, low self esteem and depression. Holly aims to form trusting, professional relationships in which clients can explore thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment, and she uses that alliance to identify tools and techniques that suit each person.

For Holly, reaching out for support is an important step that reflects a hope for change. She approaches each client with empathy and collaboration, focusing on what will help them move forward and better cope with life’s challenges. Holly looks forward to supporting clients as they discover practical strategies and personal insights to aid their journey.

Approaches That Guide Online Support

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in relationships and early bonds to help clients understand how past connections influence current feelings and interactions - it can be useful for people experiencing abandonment, attachment issues, or relationship difficulties. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the client’s own perspective and strengths; the therapist offers empathy and nonjudgmental support while clients lead the pace and focus of sessions, which often helps with self esteem, motivation, and coping with life changes. Mindfulness Therapy teaches practical attention and breathing techniques to reduce reactivity and manage stress and anxiety, supporting emotional regulation and present-moment coping.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Holly works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. Together the therapist and client assess progress and adapt techniques as understanding deepens.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for people balancing work, family, or health needs. Registered professionals can deliver consistent support without travel, allowing clients to fit therapy into their schedules and access care from their own environments while maintaining regular contact and continuity of care.
