About Naomi
Counsellor and BACP member Naomi Brookes has three years of professional experience. She is based in the United Kingdom and works with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, self-esteem, depression and coping with life changes.
Naomi speaks plainly in sessions and focuses on practical conversation. She helps people name what is happening, notice patterns, and identify small steps that feel possible. Sessions are aimed at making difficult feelings easier to manage rather than providing quick fixes.
Her work includes help with abandonment and attachment concerns, dealing with chronic pain, illness and disability, and the effects of divorce and separation. She also supports people facing emptiness, guilt and shame, isolation, and the aftermath of sexual assault and abuse. Naomi lists midlife questions, life purpose and Seasonal Affective Disorder among areas she addresses.
Naomi notes experience supporting people through perimenopause-related changes and the shifts that can bring. She uses recognised, evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts conversations to each person's needs. The focus is on understandable steps and clear aims for therapy.
Sessions are conducted in English. Naomi works within a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and cost varies with location. To begin, select the See online counselling options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.
How evidence-based approaches are used in online counselling
Naomi says she draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions. One approach focuses on identifying patterns in thoughts and behaviours and testing small changes. This helps with anxiety, low mood and motivation by giving clear, practical steps to try. Another commonly used method works on relationships and attachment. It looks at how early connections affect current reactions and helps someone notice and try different responses in close relationships. This approach can be useful for issues such as abandonment, infidelity and relationship strain. Choosing the right method is part of the work. Naomi will discuss options with each person and agree what to try first. The plan is adjusted as the sessions progress, based on the client's needs, goals and preferences, so the approach can change over time. Practical benefits of online counselling vary with the formats offered. The profile does not list specific formats, so check current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a working day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter or more frequent check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals often use video and phone in different ways to match what works best for a person.Areas of expertise
