About Persephone
Persephone Moir is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, low self-esteem and depression. She has ten years of professional experience and uses that background to guide people through difficult moments. Persephone aims to make the first steps into therapy feel manageable and acknowledges the courage it takes to begin.
She creates a calm and non-judgemental space where clients can say what they need to say. Conversations focus on understanding current struggles and practical next steps rather than on labels. Sessions are paced to match each person's needs and readiness.
Persephone draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address a wide range of concerns. She also offers support around issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, body image, codependency, communication problems and dissociation. Other areas she works with include chronic pain or long-term illness, fatherhood issues, and experiences of domestic violence.
The work often involves reflecting on personal patterns, building clearer boundaries, and developing better ways to cope with stress and relationship difficulties. Persephone aims to help people feel more able to make choices that align with their values. She seeks to partner with each person to set realistic goals and track progress.
If you want to start, Persephone asks you to use the platform's Start Therapy option and complete a short matching questionnaire to arrange sessions according to availability.
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Persephone uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on understanding how patterns form and on building practical ways to change them. One common approach helps people recognise unhelpful thoughts and then test them with small, manageable actions to reduce anxiety and improve mood. This method is useful for stress, anxiety and low mood.Another approach concentrates on attachment and relational patterns. It helps people notice how early relationship experiences shape current intimacy and codependency issues, and then practises different ways of connecting and setting boundaries.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Persephone treats the choice of method as a joint decision based on your needs, goals and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made.
Confirm the exact online session options before booking, as formats are set by current practice arrangements. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter or more frequent check-ins when helpful. They are also useful when quieter surroundings or avoiding video is preferable, depending on what suits you.
