About Pierre
Counsellor Pierre Corcoran is a BACP registered practitioner based in the United Kingdom with four years' experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, depression and addictions. He also supports concerns around relationships, family issues, grief, intimacy, eating and sleeping, parenting and career challenges.
Pierre uses a mix of approaches that suit the person in front of him rather than one fixed method. He draws on attachment-based work to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. He uses client-centred techniques to listen and reflect back what matters to the client. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps with practical strategies for thoughts and behaviour.
Sessions aim to be straightforward and focused on what the client wants to change. Conversations cover feelings, behaviour and the practical steps to try differently between meetings. He can also work with issues such as ADHD, chronic illness, body image, adoption and foster care, and dissociation where these affect daily life.
Pierre describes his role as collaborative. He helps people identify goals, notice unhelpful patterns and try alternative ways of responding. He also uses ideas from Emotionally-Focused Therapy and Jungian thinking when these fit the problem.
People who are considering counselling are invited to check the online counselling options and complete a short matching questionnaire before booking a first session. Sessions use a subscription model which can be cancelled at any time.
How his approaches work in online counselling
Pierre draws on several established approaches. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people understand why they react in certain ways. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on careful listening and reflection so the client’s own priorities guide each session. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) offers straightforward techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavioural changes to see different results.Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. Pierre will talk through the options and agree with the client which methods to try first. That choice can change as the work progresses and as goals become clearer.
The original profile did not specify session formats, so check the available options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work, study or family life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people choose quieter surroundings or lower-bandwidth options if that helps them engage more comfortably.
