About Patience

Patience Destiny is an integrative counsellor and psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom with 13 years of professional experience. She combines evidence-informed methods to tailor therapy to each person's unique history, strengths, and goals, supporting clients through a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, grief and bereavement, eating and body-image issues, addictions, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, depression, sleep problems, parenting and career challenges, and compassion fatigue.

Her practice places emphasis on a warm, interactive therapeutic relationship where clients are treated with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Patience encourages clients to bring their whole selves to sessions - including creativity and humour - and adapts her approach to reflect each person as the expert on their lived experience. She works with both short-term and longer-term therapy depending on need and preference, offering practical tools alongside reflective exploration.

Therapeutic approaches for online support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, and to clarify personal values so actions align with what matters most - useful for anxiety, low mood, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thinking and behavioural patterns, providing practical strategies for symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and sleep problems. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a compassionate, nonjudgemental therapeutic relationship in which the client leads the pace and content of work, supporting self-exploration and emotional resilience in areas like grief, relationships, and self-esteem.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Patience works collaboratively with each person to consider which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts the plan as progress unfolds so therapy remains relevant and helpful.

Online therapy by video call, phone session, live chat, or text-based messaging offers practical flexibility - it makes it easier to attend sessions around work, caregiving, or travel, and to access registered professionals from different locations. These formats support continuity of care and allow clients to engage in therapy in ways that suit their daily life and comfort level.
