About Bethany

Bethany Gribbon offers support for people coping with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief and the upheaval of separation and divorce. They aim to create a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk through painful changes and figure out next steps. Bethany is a BACP member and brings six years of practice to their work.

Sessions centre on the person’s experience. Bethany uses a person-centred approach that prioritises listening and understanding. They adapt the way they work to fit each individual and may gently challenge unhelpful thinking when it seems useful.

Bethany describes an empathic, collaborative style. Conversations focus on feelings, beliefs and patterns that affect everyday life. The goal is more self-awareness and clearer choices about how to move forward.

Across six years of practice they have supported people facing depression, panic and health worries, and those dealing with past abuse and family problems. They have also worked with people exploring gender identity, sexuality and self-worth within LGBTQI+ contexts.

When a different kind of help would be better, Bethany will signpost to other services. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then book according to the therapist’s schedule.

How person-centred work translates to online counselling

Person-centred therapy places the person at the heart of the process. It focuses on careful listening, reflecting what you say, and offering an accepting space to speak about concerns such as anxiety, relationship strain, grief or divorce and separation. This approach helps people feel heard and notice patterns in their feelings and behaviour.

Alongside that, the counsellor may use tailored interventions to gently challenge unhelpful thoughts or to try different ways of looking at a situation. These adjustments are made together, so the therapist and client decide what fits best for the person’s goals and preferences.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss options and adapt the sessions based on what the client needs and wants. This is a collaborative process and may change over time as goals become clearer.

Practical benefits of online therapy can include easier fitting of sessions into a busy week and fewer travel demands. If you prefer shorter check-ins, reduced visual focus, or different rhythms to sessions, those preferences can be discussed when booking. Confirm the current session formats before scheduling so you know what is available.
