Regina Riley , BACP

Regina Riley is an integrative counsellor who supports people navigating difficult life questions and emotional overwhelm. She offers a calm, nonjudgmental presence and works collaboratively with clients to explore feelings of depression, uncertainty, and the struggle to cope. Regina emphasizes the therapeutic relationship as the central element of change, viewing the bond between counsellor and client as a secure base from which healing and self-discovery can unfold.

Her practice draws on multiple models rather than a single method, reflecting a belief that each person and situation requires a tailored approach. Regina listens attentively, honors each individual experience, and seeks to create an environment of acceptance where feelings are not minimized. Clients can expect respectful, consistent support aimed at understanding their story and building resources for change.

Regina holds BACP, which denotes membership in the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and signals adherence to professional standards. She values the uniqueness of every client and dedicates herself to nurturing a therapeutic connection that encourages growth, insight, and renewed capacity to manage life’s challenges.

Attachment, Client-Centered and CBT Approaches for Online Care

Regina draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to help clients explore patterns in relationships and how early bonds influence current emotional responses. This approach can be useful for issues like intimacy struggles, attachment concerns, and feelings of abandonment or instability.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on acceptance, empathic listening, and creating a supportive space where clients lead the pace of change. This approach helps people who need validation, support with self-esteem, or relief from overwhelming emotions.

Additionally, Regina incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that contribute to anxiety, depression, and stress. CBT offers practical strategies for coping and problem solving alongside deeper relational work.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Regina works with each person to understand their goals, preferences, and life context, and then tailors a plan that may blend these methods to best meet individual needs.

Online therapy with Regina is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for busy schedules and for clients who are not in the same location. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, fit sessions into daily life, and access licensed professionals from a distance.
