Trisha Poole, BACP

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people live by their values while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. It can be useful for anxiety, depression and for making changes that matter most to the person. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It often helps with anxiety, low mood and sleep problems. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how past relationships shape current connection and emotional responses, which can be helpful for intimacy and relationship concerns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to goals, discuss options and try different methods to find what fits. Decisions about approach are collaborative and may change as progress is made.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into daily life, such as arranging meetings outside work hours or avoiding travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins when needed and reduce the need to be on camera for every session. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt tools like ACT and CBT to work well at a distance while focusing on practical steps and emotional understanding.
