Heather Beveridge, BACP, NCPS

Heather Beveridge is an empathetic, non-judgmental counsellor who works to help people feel more empowered and find lasting change in their lives. She practises in the United Kingdom and welcomes clients from other countries, offering support in English and through a range of online formats. With three years of professional experience, Heather uses an integrative, person-centred approach that recognises each person as the expert on their own life while drawing on complementary methods to meet individual needs.

Heather holds BACP and NCPS credentials, which reflect her professional affiliation with established counselling and psychotherapy bodies and her training in therapeutic practice. She tailors therapy to the person in front of her rather than following a one-size-fits-all model, creating a collaborative space where people can feel heard and understood. Heather works with a broad spectrum of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship difficulties, addiction, grief, parenting challenges, self-esteem issues, ADHD, eating disorders, and compassion fatigue. She also has experience supporting people facing gender dysphoria, hoarding, infidelity and jealousy, OCD symptoms, phobias, postpartum depression, prejudice and discrimination, self-harm, and sexual assault and abuse.

Heather aims to help clients identify practical steps and develop coping strategies that fit their values and goals, supporting recovery and resilience through thoughtful, inclusive care.

Therapeutic approaches for online support

Heather combines several evidence-informed ways of working to meet different needs. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being overwhelmed by them, and supports setting values-based goals to build a more meaningful daily life. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns that developed in early relationships and explores how those patterns affect current connections, which can be useful for relationship problems, insecurity, and themes of loss or trauma. Client-Centered Therapy places the person and their experience at the heart of the process, offering a respectful, non-directive space where people can explore feelings, clarify priorities, and grow at their own pace.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work itself. Heather treats the selection of techniques as a collaborative process, tailoring methods to each client’s needs, goals, and preferences and adjusting as therapy progresses. She works with clients to identify what feels most helpful and practical.

Online sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, to access support from different locations, and to maintain continuity when schedules change. Licensed professionals can offer meaningful, flexible support through these formats, helping clients build coping skills and make progress from wherever they are.
