About Deborah

Deborah Flett is an NCPS counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years of experience working in adult services. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, relationship strains, anger and other life stresses. She also supports those adjusting to career changes and coping with grief or trauma.

Her style is person-centred and client-led. She uses a pluralistic approach, which means she draws on different methods and involves clients in shared decision making. Sessions focus on what the person wants and practical steps that match their goals.

Deborah combines humanistic, psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioural ideas in her work. That can mean talking through patterns of thought, reflecting on past experience, or practising new ways of responding to difficult feelings. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and hypnotherapy where these fit the client’s aims.

People come to her with a wide range of concerns, including abuse and childhood trauma, neurological health impacts, self harm history, adoption and attachment worries, caregiving stress, chronic illness, and intimacy-related issues. She helps people look at how these problems affect everyday life and the relationships around them.

Her sessions are collaborative and practical. She talks with clients about what they want from therapy and offers different activities and processes at different times. The emphasis is on making clear choices about the work and testing what helps in ordinary life.

How her approaches shape online sessions

Deborah uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centred methods alongside cognitive-behavioural techniques. ACT helps people notice painful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values, which can be helpful for anger, anxiety and life transitions. Client-centred work focuses on listening closely and following what the person brings each week, useful when people need to talk through relationships or grief. CBT looks at unhelpful thinking and practical skills to change reactions, often used for stress, sleep and anger management.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Deborah explores goals and preferences with each client and adjusts methods as those needs become clearer. She treats this as a shared process so therapy changes if something isn’t helpful.

The original profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work and family life, reduce travel, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also let people use quieter surroundings or simpler tech when that helps keep things manageable.
