About Esther
Esther Enaruwe is a counsellor who speaks directly about the fears that can keep people from starting therapy. She knows what it feels like to sit in the first session and worry about being judged or saying too much. Esther uses that experience to make the first steps easier for others.
She trained and works with approaches such as Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Existential Therapy and Psychodynamic Therapy.
Background and approach
Esther adapts these methods to everyday concerns like stress, anxiety and depression. She also supports people coping with trauma, addiction, relationship strain, grief and issues around identity and self-esteem. Esther has three years' experience and is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
She practises in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English. International clients are welcome, and she uses a mix of remote formats to suit different needs. Her style is warm and straightforward.
Sessions aim to be a space for honest conversation and gradual change. Esther helps people notice patterns, try new ways of coping and make decisions that feel right for them. Practical matters are kept simple.
Therapy works around the realities of life, with options for video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging. Esther invites people to start at a pace that feels manageable and to explore what they most want to work on.

Approaches Esther lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Finding the right approach often happens together in the early sessions. Esther works collaboratively to identify goals and then tailors techniques to match what a person wants and needs. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan as progress and priorities change.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when deeper connection helps. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or for short check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer shorter, more frequent exchanges or who need flexibility around their day. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, parenting and travel while keeping the focus on steady progress.
