About Cecile
Cecile Terrelonge is a counsellor with more than 18 years' experience. She uses a person-centred approach and aims to create a calm space where people can speak honestly. Sessions are 50 minutes long and usually take place at the same day and time each week to give continuity of support.
Cecile places the person at the centre of the work and focuses on what someone can do next, rather than labelling them by a condition. She offers both short-term and longer-term therapy and will tailor sessions to individual needs and circumstances. Changes to session times can be arranged in advance to suit shift-workers.
Her practice covers a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, and codependency. She also supports people dealing with trauma, self-esteem, ADHD, long-term illness and pain, and career or parenting stresses. Recent work has included supporting LGBT clients through community partnerships.
Cecile set up and managed a voluntary youth counselling service while developing her practice. That work helped her learn practical ways to talk with young people and adults who are struggling with distress. She remains active in community work and continues to build her experience supporting diverse groups.
She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and provides therapy in the United Kingdom. Sessions are offered in English and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How attachment and emotion-focused work translates online
Attachment-Based Therapy helps people understand how early relationships shape current reactions and connections. Online sessions can be used to notice patterns, try new ways of relating, and practise different responses to stress or closeness.Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's experience in the moment. The therapist listens without judgment and follows the client's pace, which can make remote sessions feel steady and predictable for people needing consistent support.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at emotional patterns in relationships and within the self. In online meetings clients can name difficult feelings and experiment with new emotional responses while discussing how these affect daily life.
Finding the right way of working is part of therapy. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and practical needs, and together they will decide which approach or mix of approaches fits best. This is a collaborative process and adjustments can be made as therapy progresses.
Confirm the session formats directly before booking, as current biography details do not specify which online methods are used. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer not to be on camera or who need sessions that work around shift patterns.
