About Cheryl
Cheryl Clokey is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, family problems, grief and depression. Cheryl also supports those dealing with life purpose questions and midlife shifts.
Cheryl keeps sessions straightforward and centred on practical conversation. She listens to the problems people bring and helps them name what feels most urgent. Discussions lead to clear steps to try between meetings, so progress can be noticed in everyday life.
Her work often covers emotional responses after loss, strains in close relationships, and the low mood that follows major life changes. She also supports people managing long-term health issues, body image concerns, isolation and the effects of prejudice.
Cheryl adapts the length and focus of sessions to what an individual needs. She explains options, reviews what is or isn’t helping, and adjusts the plan as things change. The emphasis is on practical approaches that fit a person’s daily routine.
People can expect conversations that aim to clarify what matters to them now. Cheryl uses her BACP registration as the frame for her practice and draws on evidence-based techniques to inform the work. Her approach is suitable for those wanting to explore what comes next in work, relationships or health.
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Cheryl uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide her work. One common approach focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns that maintain anxiety and low mood. This method helps people spot repetitive thoughts and experiment with alternative ways of thinking that reduce distress.A second approach emphasises practical problem-solving and behavioural steps. It breaks larger issues into manageable tasks and supports people to try specific actions between meetings, which can help with relationship tensions, grief reactions and life-purpose decisions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Cheryl works collaboratively to review what helps and what does not. She adjusts methods based on a person’s needs, goals and preferences so the direction of the sessions makes sense for them.
