About Cheryl
Cheryl Fenech-Soler is a counsellor and psychotherapist with eight years of clinical experience. She works with adults on a wide range of concerns and aims to create a calm, accepting space where people can talk through what feels hard. Cheryl is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, which is listed among her credentials.
She meets people where they are and adapts how she works to each individual.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on understanding feelings, identifying patterns, and developing practical ways to cope. Cheryl draws on client-centred methods to keep the conversation focused on the person in front of her. Her practice also uses psychodynamic ideas to look at how past experiences shape current reactions.
That helps when themes repeat or when early attachments influence present relationships. Solution-focused techniques are used too, to set small, achievable goals and track progress between sessions. Cheryl has supported people through anxiety, stress, grief, trauma and abuse, depression, addiction, and relationship and intimacy-related difficulties.
She also works with concerns such as eating and sleeping problems, anger, self-esteem, career issues, bipolar and ADHD-related matters. Additional focus areas include attachment and abandonment, caregiver strain, chronic illness, body image and communication problems. Sessions are offered in English and Cheryl accepts international clients.
She offers a compassionate, tailored approach that balances listening with practical steps. If someone wants to explore their options, Cheryl helps them decide what to try next and how to move forward.

Approaches Cheryl lists

Online support
Psychodynamic Therapy looks at how earlier life experiences can shape current feelings and behaviour. It can help identify repeating patterns and make sense of emotional reactions that feel confusing or overwhelming.
Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, achievable steps and what the client wants to change. It is practical and goal-orientated, which suits people who want clear actions and measurable progress.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Cheryl will discuss options and adapt methods to fit the client’s needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process where the therapist and client test approaches and refine what helps most.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls recreate a face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when less bandwidth is available, live chat is useful for short check-ins and text-based messaging allows work to continue between meetings. These formats make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caring duties or travel while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
