About Celia

Counsellor Celia Flack is a BACP member practising in the United Kingdom with seven years' experience. She helps people with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.

Celia works in a way that draws on several counselling approaches. She uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. She also uses client-centred listening and cognitive behavioural techniques to help people name and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.

Her work includes attention to trauma, post-traumatic responses, and the link between body and mind after harm. She has an interest in early childhood neglect and in recovery after traumatic events. This means the sessions may include noticing bodily reactions as well as talking through memories and feelings.

Celia also addresses practical life problems such as communication difficulties, care-related stress, chronic illness and relationship changes like divorce or blended family issues. She helps people think about commitment and control issues, guilt, shame and attachment concerns.

In sessions she aims to listen without judgement and to support people to find their own answers. The first meetings focus on what someone wants to work on and how to manage it step by step. To begin, people follow the site matching process and then book a first session to see if the fit feels right.

How her approaches fit with online counselling

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current behaviour. In practice this means noticing patterns in relationships, exploring where those patterns come from, and testing new ways of relating. Client-centred counselling focuses on careful listening and following what the person brings to the session. It is useful when people need space to talk things through and to build clarity about their feelings and priorities. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviours. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and stress and includes practical exercises to try between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels manageable. Together they will pick methods and steps to try, and check how those feel over time. This is a collaborative process rather than a fixed plan.

The biography does not list specific session formats. Please confirm which formats are offered before booking so you know how sessions will be run. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a working day, reduce travel, and allow shorter check-ins when useful. It can also suit people who prefer to be in a quieter environment or who need flexibility around caregiving or medical appointments.
