About Persephone
Persephone Moir helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stress or low mood. She is experienced in talking through trauma and abuse, and supports people dealing with intimacy worries and low self-esteem. Persephone works in a direct, calm way to make it easier to say what matters most.
She has ten years of professional experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Persephone aims to create an open space where thoughts and feelings can be spoken about without judgement.
Background and approach
She encourages small, practical steps so progress feels manageable. Sessions focus on understanding what keeps difficulties going and on building useful coping strategies. Conversations look at relationships with others and with yourself, including attachment and abandonment concerns.
She also supports people with issues linked to body image, chronic illness, chronic pain and neurodiversity such as autism and Asperger syndrome. Persephone offers help around complex topics like dissociation, codependency, communication problems, shame, guilt and the aftermath of domestic violence. She is also experienced in supporting people exploring BDSM, kink and alternative sexual cultures, and in navigating fatherhood and family tensions.
Her style is practical and conversational. Persephone works collaboratively to set goals and to adjust pace as needed. She recognises that starting therapy takes courage and aims to make the first steps straightforward.

Online support
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Persephone will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and decide together which methods feel most helpful. This collaborative process means approaches are adjusted over time as needs change.
Online sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video lets people use visual cues and more natural conversation, while phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or messaging suits shorter check-ins, written reflection or people who prefer typing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other demands while keeping continuity of care.
