About Ursula
Ursula Grant offers calm, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or major life changes. She focuses on building confidence, improving self-esteem and helping clients sort through relationship and parenting worries. Ursula listens without judgement and creates a space where people feel heard and respected.
With 35 years of experience, Ursula draws on a mix of counselling approaches to match what each person needs. She uses client-centred work to follow what matters most to the client.
Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, helps when thoughts and behaviours get stuck in unhelpful patterns. She also uses psychodynamic ideas to look at how past experiences shape present reactions and solution-focused techniques to find practical steps forward. Ursula spent 12 years working within the NHS and ran a special needs school for 20 years.
She holds an MCs in Therapeutic Counselling and is an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She is also a qualified supervisor of counsellors. In sessions she teaches assertiveness skills and practical ways to organise home and work life.
She offers listening when someone needs to be understood, and tools when someone wants change. Common concerns she helps with include grief, depression, family problems, trauma and abuse, intimacy issues and career questions. Sessions are offered in English and Ursula works with international clients.
She adapts her approach to each person and aims to make therapy straightforward and useful from the first meetings.

Online support
She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, to spot unhelpful thoughts and behaviour patterns. CBT offers practical exercises and small experiments that can reduce anxiety, improve mood and change daily routines.
Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the work. Ursula will discuss goals, preferences and what feels useful, then adjust the way she works to fit the individual. That collaboration helps build a plan that is realistic and relevant to day‑to‑day life.
Online sessions can be arranged by video call, phone, live chat or text‑based messaging. Video calls are good for a fuller face‑to‑face feel, phone sessions suit shorter check‑ins or lower bandwidth, live chat can be a quicker way to reflect in writing, and messaging supports ongoing check‑ins between meetings. These options add flexibility and make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments.
