About Trisha

Trisha Poole is a BACP counsellor with more than 24 years of experience. She combines a grounded, empathic style with practical conversation to help people who feel lost or overwhelmed. Trisha supports people through grief, anxiety, depression, addiction and work-related stress. She also helps with relationship and parenting concerns, self-esteem, and life transitions.

She uses a blend of approaches to suit each person’s needs rather than one fixed method. That can mean exploring values and committed action, looking at patterns in close relationships, or using straightforward cognitive and emotional skills. Trisha also offers life and executive coaching when people want goal-focused work with accountability.

Sessions aim to clarify what matters to the client and identify small steps that make daily life more manageable. Trisha listens for what is getting in the way and works with people to build more helpful habits and clearer communication. Practical strategies are matched with emotional work when needed.

Her background includes long experience supporting people after loss and during major health or caregiving challenges. This includes helping people cope with chronic illness, cancer, caregiver stress and the emotional impact of ageing. She also offers support around trauma, attachment and intimacy-related difficulties.

Trisha works in English and is based in the United Kingdom. She has a BACP membership as a BACP Therapist - Registered Member MBACP (Accred). To begin, readers are invited to follow the site’s Start Therapy process to be matched and schedule a first appointment.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions that fit daily life

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people get clearer about what matters to them and take small steps towards those values. It is often used for anxiety, depression and coping with long-term health issues. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments, which can reduce worry and improve sleep and mood. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people change unhelpful ways of relating, which can ease intimacy and communication problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Trisha treats the choice of method as collaborative. She will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then adapt sessions so they match what the client wants to achieve.

The profile does not list specific online formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Many people find online or remote sessions easier to fit into busy days, reduce time spent travelling and allow quicker follow-ups between meetings. Others prefer shorter check-ins when energy or concentration is limited. Trisha aims to make therapy work alongside daily responsibilities while focusing on practical tools and emotional change.
