About Valerie

Valerie Skerrett is a UK-licensed therapist with nine years of professional experience, offering compassionate support for people facing stress, anxiety, grief and loss, low self-esteem, motivation and career difficulties. She also works with couples to explore relationship challenges and seek resolutions that suit both partners. As a BACP member - registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - she draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help clients make meaningful changes in their lives.

Valerie creates an open, nonjudgmental space where feelings and thoughts can be expressed freely, and she encourages clients to take courageous steps toward a more fulfilling and happier life. Her approach emphasizes collaboration, practical strategies and emotional understanding so clients can build confidence, navigate life transitions and improve communication with others. She is available to support individuals and couples through the process of change, offering steady guidance while respecting each person’s pace and goals.

Evidence-Based Therapeutic Support Delivered Remotely

Valerie Skerrett uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to each client's needs. One approach focuses on structured, goal-oriented work that helps identify unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and develop practical strategies for managing stress, anxiety and depressive symptoms. Another strand of her work is emotionally focused and exploratory, helping clients process grief, examine relationship dynamics and build self-esteem by exploring underlying feelings and patterns of interaction.



Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Valerie collaborates with clients to determine which methods fit best with their goals, preferences and life circumstances, adapting her style as progress is made and priorities change.



Online sessions offer flexibility and accessibility - clients can connect by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit therapy into busy schedules or different time zones. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, attend sessions from a comfortable setting and access a licensed professional without the constraints of travel.
