Regina Riley

Regina Riley is a counsellor who works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and major life changes. She uses a person-focused way of working and places the relationship with each client at the centre of the work. Regina keeps conversations respectful and non-judgemental and aims to help people make sense of difficult feelings and decisions.

Regina describes herself as an integrative counsellor, which means she draws on several approaches rather than following only one model. She often blends attachment-based ideas with cognitive and psychodynamic perspectives to suit what each person brings to sessions. This flexible mix is used when helping with trauma, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns.

Her practice pays attention to how early relationships and patterns shape current reactions and choices. Sessions also look at thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going and at ways to try new responses in everyday life. The work can involve talking about painful memories, noticing unhelpful thinking, and practising different ways of coping.

Regina has four years of experience and holds BACP, which stands for the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She offers help on matters including addictions, parenting strain, caregiver stress, body image and chronic illness or disability issues as listed in her specialities.

Sessions are offered in English and in Ndebele where needed. People from outside the UK may work with her, and practical arrangements are set when booking. To begin, users follow the site process to match with a therapist and arrange the first meeting.

How these approaches work online

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape how people relate now. Online work with attachment ideas can help people notice patterns and try different ways of connecting and trusting others.

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on being heard and accepted. This approach gives people space to talk through worries at their own pace while the counsellor reflects what is said and helps explore choices.

The right approach is usually decided together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then adapt methods as the work proceeds. This is a collaborative process rather than a fixed plan.

Confirm the exact session options before booking, as the profile does not list specific formats. Online arrangements are often useful because they can fit into busy days, remove travel time and make it easier to schedule regular check-ins. If quieter surroundings or shorter, camera-free check-ins help someone engage, those practical needs can be taken into account when arranging sessions.
