About Gerrard
Gerrard Fauguel is a counsellor who uses a person-centred approach to help people move through difficult times. He is presented with warmth and listens closely so clients can talk about what matters. Gerrard has worked in the field for more than two decades and brings that steady presence to each session.
He is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and practices from the United Kingdom. His background includes long-term work with people facing anxiety, depression and relationship issues. He also supports those dealing with addiction, trauma and the practical strains of parenting and career change.
Gerrard adapts his style to each person. He describes his work as open and interactive, and aims to avoid stigmatising labels. That means sessions focus on the person’s experience rather than on applying a fixed formula. He mixes humanistic, psychodynamic and rational-emotive ideas to shape a plan that fits the client.
He has experience helping people with attachment and abandonment concerns, codependency, and challenges related to neurodiversity such as autism. He also works with people affected by domestic violence, divorce, bereavement and chronic illness such as cancer.
Gerrard encourages small, practical steps alongside deeper conversation. He offers a calm space for people to try out new ways of coping, build self-esteem and address problems like anger, sleeping difficulties and compassion fatigue. If someone is ready to begin, he supports them through the first steps.
How Gerrard’s approaches translate to online work
Gerrard uses Client‑Centred Therapy, which focuses on listening carefully and following the person's lead so they can talk through what matters. This approach supports self‑understanding and is useful for stress, low mood and relationship concerns.He also uses Emotionally‑Focused Therapy in parts of his work to help people notice and name emotional patterns and respond differently in difficult moments. This can be helpful for intimacy issues, attachment concerns and strong emotional reactions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Gerrard will discuss goals and preferences in early sessions and then suggest which methods to use. He adapts plans as needs change so the process stays collaborative and practical.
Please confirm current session options before booking, as the profile does not list specific formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week and reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check‑in conversations when needed, or sessions that suit quieter surroundings or lower bandwidth. Registered or accredited professionals, including counsellors like Gerrard, often find that working remotely can help people maintain momentum between sessions and make therapy a steadier part of everyday life.
