Cherena Morlese , BACP

Cherena Morlese is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with more than nine years of professional experience supporting people through difficult transitions and emotional challenges. She creates a warm, compassionate space where clients can explore thoughts and feelings at their own pace, and she tailors conversations and treatment plans to each person’s circumstances and goals.

Cherena works with a broad range of concerns, including stress and anxiety, depression, relationship and family difficulties, grief and loss, addictions, trauma and abuse, eating and sleeping issues, parenting and caregiver stress, anger and low self-esteem. She also supports people facing career pressures, coping with life changes, and those dealing with communication, commitment, and codependency problems. Her practice includes culturally sensitive work with clients from diverse backgrounds.

Her clinical approach blends several evidence-informed methods, with an emphasis on client-centered care that values open communication and respect. She offers psychoeducation and practical tools to help clients recognize how emotional distress can affect the body and to build skills for everyday coping. Cherena holds the BACP credential - membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which indicates professional affiliation with a recognised UK counselling body.

She accepts international clients and provides sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or in-app messaging. To begin, prospective clients can view her diary to book a first session or send a message for assistance with scheduling.

Online Therapeutic Approaches and Flexible Support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and develop practical steps to live in line with those values. It combines mindfulness strategies with behavioral change techniques to address anxiety, stress, and patterns that keep people stuck.

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape present-day connections and emotional responses. It can be helpful for clients working through relationship patterns, abandonment concerns, or attachment issues that affect intimacy and trust.

Client-centered Therapy places the client at the heart of the process, offering empathetic, nonjudgmental listening that empowers self-exploration and personal growth. This approach supports people facing grief, life transitions, low self-esteem, and decision-making challenges.

Cherena will collaborate with each client to identify which approach or combination of approaches best fits their needs, goals, and preferences. Finding the right method is part of the therapeutic process, and she works with clients to adjust techniques and plans as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, to access support from different locations, and to continue work during life transitions, while still engaging with licensed professionals and therapists who provide structured, goal-oriented care.
