Collette Treen

Collette Treen is a Humanistic counsellor who uses a client-centred approach to help people navigate stress, anxiety and low self-esteem. She holds BACP accreditation and has five years of experience working in organisations and private practice across the United Kingdom. Collette aims to offer a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can speak openly about what’s troubling them.

She supports people with depression, relationship difficulties and problems at work. Collette also works with concerns such as grief, trauma and compassion fatigue, and she has additional focus on issues like abandonment, attachment and isolation or loneliness. Conversations are led by the client’s priorities and pace.

In sessions she listens carefully and reflects back what she hears. The emphasis is on understanding the person’s experience rather than directing them. This helps people feel seen and start to notice different ways of responding to old patterns.

Collette aims to help people find practical steps that fit their life. That might include trying new ways to manage stress, improving communication, or exploring feelings of emptiness and guilt. She encourages small changes that build over time.

Her practice is suitable for adults seeking support with everyday pressures and deeper emotional concerns. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not accepted. To begin, clients use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

How client-centred practice transfers to online care

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and working at the client’s pace. It involves the counsellor reflecting what they hear and helping people make sense of their feelings. This approach can be useful for anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship worries and feelings of isolation.

The therapist will work with the client to decide what feels most helpful. Finding the right approach is a collaborative process - goals, preferences and day-to-day needs guide which methods are tried. The counsellor will check in and adjust the way sessions are run as work progresses.

Online therapy can help fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time and making it easier to plan around work or study. It can also allow a shorter check-in or a time that suits a lunch break. The original biography does not specify session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can tailor sessions to focus on coping strategies, communication skills, dealing with loneliness and managing stress without promising specific outcomes.
