About Ceri
Ceri Westcott works from a client-centred and mindfulness-informed stance to help people manage stress, anxiety and the effects of trauma. She combines compassion with practical tools so people can live more in line with their values. Ceri holds BACP accreditation which she uses as a professional framework for her practice.
Ceri has nine years' experience as a counsellor and psychotherapist. She listens for the details of each person's story and helps them build self-compassion and resilience.
Background and approach
Sessions often include guided mindfulness exercises and simple imagery work to support practical change. Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them. Attachment-based ideas inform how she talks about past relationships and the impact they have on current patterns.
Client-centred methods keep sessions focused on the person's priorities and pace. Ceri helps with a broad range of concerns including relationship strain, parenting stress, compassion fatigue, workplace pressures, self-esteem and life transitions. She also has experience supporting people through pregnancy and childbirth challenges, postpartum depression, and issues connected to domestic violence and caregiving.
Sessions are offered in English and are available online in the United Kingdom. People can expect a calm, down-to-earth style and a collaborative atmosphere where they set the goals and lead the work.

Online support
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences and suggest methods that fit. This is a collaborative process and plans are adjusted as the work unfolds.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for a fuller conversational experience and non-verbal cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a quieter background is needed. Live chat and messaging are handy for brief check-ins, reflections between sessions or when typing helps you express things more clearly.
