About Glennis
Counsellor Glennis Pye is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has four years' experience working in the United Kingdom. She sees people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family difficulties, grief, trauma and abuse, anger, self-esteem and life changes. She also offers coaching-style support for career matters and confidence building, and works with concerns such as ADHD, attachment and abandonment issues and women's matters.
Glennis trained to a postgraduate diploma level in integrative counselling and coaching. She combines different approaches and may use more active coaching strategies when that suits the client. Sessions are planned with the client's agreement and based on personal goals and preferences.
In practical terms she helps people talk through current problems and longer-standing issues. Conversations focus on thoughts, feelings and behaviour, with the aim of finding ways forward and building skills for everyday life. She uses clear, straightforward methods that are explained during sessions.
Her background includes work with bereavement, recovery from illness and domestic violence, and she addresses social anxiety, guilt and shame, and young adult concerns. Glennis describes her practice as responsive to each person's needs and open to short or longer-term support.
People looking for counselling in the UK can expect a direct, conversational approach. Initial steps include a short matching questionnaire and arranging a first session to agree aims and a working plan.
Therapeutic approaches and online counselling
Glennis commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). ACT helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, low mood and life changes.She also works from an attachment-based perspective. That approach looks at how early relationships affect current patterns and can be useful for relationship worries, abandonment concerns and attachment issues.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with the client and agree what to try first. This is a collaborative process based on the person's goals and preferences, and can change as progress is made.
Practical benefits of arranging sessions online should be confirmed before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. Online sessions can fit into busy schedules, reduce travel time and make it easier to join from different locations. They can also allow for shorter check-ins or sessions that do not require being on camera, depending on what is agreed. Confirm the current session options when you book so arrangements match your needs.
