About Faye
Counsellor Faye Noyland is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years' experience. She works with people on stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression and related concerns. Sessions are offered in English and she sees clients in the United Kingdom and internationally.
Faye uses a pluralistic style and involves the person in decisions about their sessions. She encourages practical conversation about what is worrying someone, and then together they choose approaches that feel right. Explanations are kept plain and steps are worked through at a steady pace.
Her work draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing. That means some weeks focus on noticing thoughts and values, some weeks on changing patterns, and some on processing difficult memories. The method chosen depends on what the person wants to focus on.
Faye also supports people with concerns such as addiction, grief, intimacy issues, eating and sleeping problems, career strain, and coping with life changes including chronic illness. She can talk about communication problems, attachment or abandonment issues and the impact these have on everyday life.
Sessions follow a collaborative plan set with the person. The counsellor aims to be respectful and direct, and to help people take practical steps between meetings. To start, prospective clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session through the directory.
How therapeutic approaches work in online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match personal values. It can help with anxiety, low mood and difficulties that come from getting stuck in unhelpful thinking. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behaviour and teaches clear techniques for changing them, which suits problems like panic, insomnia and low mood. Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used to address distressing memories by processing them in a structured way; it is often used for trauma and abuse related difficulties.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with the person about goals and preferences and agree which methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can be adjusted as sessions progress.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work, travel and family life. It also allows shorter check-ins when needed, and speaking without needing to travel to an office. Registered or accredited professionals can offer these benefits while working with a mix of ACT, CBT and EMDR techniques to suit the concern being addressed.
