About Collette

Collette Treen is a Humanistic counsellor registered with the BACP in the United Kingdom and has five years of experience. She works with adults who are managing stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and relationship difficulties. She also supports people facing life changes, grief, compassion fatigue and workplace strain.

Collette uses a client-centred approach that focuses on listening and building a straightforward therapeutic relationship. In sessions she encourages honest talk about feelings and behaviours, and helps people name what is happening when anger or frustration shows up. The work is practical and paced to the person’s ability to reflect and try different ways of responding.

She pays attention to attachment and communication patterns that can feed repeated conflict or resentment. That includes exploration of abandonment, control issues, guilt and shame, and isolation or loneliness. Collette also offers space to talk about sexuality and LGBT concerns when they relate to someone’s emotional well-being.

For people dealing with trauma, self-harm thoughts, or heavy grief, she provides steady, person-focused support and helps plan manageable steps for coping between sessions. Collette aims to help clients notice small changes that reduce anger, improve communication, and ease day-to-day pressure.

Sessions are framed around the client’s priorities. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then book a first appointment. Fees vary with location and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

Client-centred practice and online sessions

Collette’s main approach is Client-Centred Therapy, which means the conversation is guided by the client’s concerns and pace. The counsellor listens without directing the story and reflects what she hears to help clients understand feelings and reactions, including anger and frustration.

Her Humanistic outlook pays attention to how attachment and communication shape recurring conflicts. That involves looking at patterns such as control issues, guilt, or abandonment fears, and working through small, practical changes to reduce tension and improve responses in daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Collette will collaborate with each person to identify which ideas and exercises fit their goals and preferences. She checks in regularly about what helps and adapts the focus if needed.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can help fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make it easier to meet without travel. Registered or accredited professionals on the platform aim to make sessions workable around work and family commitments rather than offering one fixed way of meeting.
