About Moira
Moira McCarthy offers support for stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, depression, addictions and trauma. She also helps with parenting concerns, intimacy and self-esteem, bipolar mood challenges, ADHD, and issues linked to life changes. Moira works with people who are feeling isolated, overwhelmed or stuck and wants to help them find clearer ways forward.
Moira uses a person-centred approach that keeps the person's needs central. Sessions are tailored to what each client brings.
Background and approach
The focus is on listening, understanding and helping people find their own solutions rather than directing them. She trained in counselling and holds an MA in Theology and a Diploma in Counselling. Moira is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP.
She has around 10 years of professional experience working with a wide range of concerns. In practical terms Moira offers sessions by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. International clients who speak English can work with her.
Costs vary depending on location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. Getting started involves selecting the Start Therapy button, completing a short matching questionnaire and then arranging sessions based on the therapist's availability. This simple process helps match people to the right support before the first appointment.

Approaches Moira 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
The process of finding the right approach is collaborative. Moira will discuss what feels helpful and adjust methods to fit each person's goals and preferences. Together they decide whether to emphasise emotional processing, practical coping strategies or communication work, based on what the client wants to achieve.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be a simpler check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter, more frequent contact or times when writing things down helps. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while fitting around work, study or family life.
