About Deborah
Deborah Flett is an NCPS registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years' experience working in adult services. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship problems, depression and a wide range of life challenges including trauma, bereavement and addiction. Deborah also supports those dealing with parenting pressures, career strain, codependency concerns and long-term health issues.
Her practice is person-centred and client-led. She uses a pluralistic method, which means different processes and activities are tried depending on what each person needs. Deborah asks about goals, talks through options, and makes decisions together with clients about what to try next.
She blends humanistic thinking, psychodynamic ideas and cognitive behavioural techniques. In sessions that might include talking, reflective work or practical strategies, the focus is on what will help most in day-to-day life. Deborah has experience helping people cope with the effects of childhood trauma and with both physical and emotional abuse.
People come to her wanting clearer boundaries, less reactivity, or help managing grief and loss. She also works with issues around intimacy, sleep difficulties, anger and compassion fatigue. Her work includes supporting carers and people living with chronic illness or neurological conditions.
Deborah describes therapy as a shared process. She talks with clients about what they want from therapy and adjusts the approach as needs change. This practical, collaborative way helps people try different tools and see what makes a difference in their lives.
How sessions work
How Deborah uses ACT, CBT and client-centred work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and building small actions that fit those values. It helps with anxiety, low mood and patterns like people-pleasing by encouraging chosen actions even when feelings are uncomfortable.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, sleep problems, anger and unhelpful reaction cycles in relationships.
Client-Centred Therapy puts the client's experience and decisions at the heart of the work. Sessions are steered by what the person wants to address and how they prefer to do that, with the counsellor offering reflection and different possible tools.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Deborah will discuss goals and preferences and try methods that match what the client wants to focus on. That collaboration helps decide whether to emphasise ACT, CBT, psychodynamic exploration or hypnotherapy techniques at different times.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed and remove travel time. Registered or accredited professionals often use these benefits to help people keep therapy going alongside work, caring duties and other commitments.
