About Trisha
Trisha Poole is a BACP-registered counsellor with 24 years of experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, low mood, addictions and relationship difficulties. She also supports those dealing with grief, trauma, codependency and life changes.
Trisha uses a mix of talking therapy and practical techniques. Sessions often include acceptance and commitment ideas, cognitive behavioural tools and emotion-focused work. She aims to help people notice unhelpful patterns, make clearer choices and act on values that matter to them.
People come to her when they feel overwhelmed, stuck or unsure what to do next. She also offers coaching-style support when someone wants goal-focused work and accountability alongside therapy. That can suit people who want clearer steps toward change rather than open-ended talking alone.
Her practice is straightforward and goal-aware. She listens, reflects what she hears and suggests small, doable steps to try between sessions. That might include short mindfulness exercises, experiments in changing behaviour, or ways to practice boundaries in everyday life.
Trisha has worked with a wide range of concerns over two decades. Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas about connection, acceptance and present-focused work to help people shift patterns of relating. Sessions are carried out in English and she accepts international clients; check current session options when booking.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting driven by them. It focuses on choosing actions that match personal values, which can help with anxiety, codependency and life changes.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) breaks down how thoughts, feelings and actions interact. It offers practical steps and short experiments to change unhelpful patterns like rumination, avoidance or people-pleasing.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at how emotions shape relationships and self-expression. It can help people better understand attachment patterns and practice new ways of responding when strong feelings arise.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk through goals, preferences and what has or hasnt helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as things evolve.
Session options are not listed in the original biography, so confirm current formats before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into work and family life, or useful for shorter check-ins when time is limited. Online work also supports using written notes, guided exercises and recorded mindfulness practices between sessions to keep progress moving.
