Naomi Forkes, BACP

Naomi Forkes is a UK-licensed therapist with three years of professional experience supporting people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties and family conflicts. She works with clients on parenting challenges, motivation, self-esteem and confidence, helping them identify strengths they can draw on as they work through life’s challenges.

Naomi approaches each person as the expert of their own story and collaborates with clients to build practical skills and insight that fit their goals. Her practice emphasises attentive listening and compassionate guidance, offering a steady presence for those taking the often-difficult first step toward a more fulfilling life.

She holds BACP, a credential indicating membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and brings a strengths-focused perspective to sessions. Naomi aims to create a supportive space where clients can explore issues such as attachment and abandonment, family of origin concerns, codependency, communication problems, and transitions like separation and blended family adjustments. She is available to help clients navigate guilt, shame, feelings of emptiness and caregiver stress while working toward clearer communication and healthier relationships.

Evidence-based techniques delivered through online therapy

Naomi draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on building practical skills and insight. One common approach she uses emphasizes skills-based strategies to manage stress and anxiety - these techniques teach coping tools and step-by-step ways to reduce overwhelm and improve day-to-day functioning.

She also works with relational and attachment-focused methods that help clients understand patterns in family and close relationships. These approaches support people dealing with issues like communication problems, codependency, abandonment concerns and blended family dynamics by exploring interaction styles and developing healthier ways to connect.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Naomi collaborates with each client to identify what fits best based on their needs, goals and preferences. She tailors sessions so the work feels relevant and achievable, checking in regularly to adjust the focus as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Naomi offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call or phone, and she also offers live chat and text-based messaging. This range of options helps clients access support in ways that fit their schedules and comfort levels while working with a licensed professional familiar with stress, anxiety, relationships and family concerns.
