About Faye

Faye Noyland is a counsellor who uses a pluralistic approach to help people with stress, anxiety, sleep difficulties and relationship concerns. She works alongside clients to understand what matters to them and to plan steps forward. Faye holds BACP registration and has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.

She encourages an open, non-judgemental space where thoughts and feelings can be talked through. Sessions focus on what the client knows about their situation, with the counsellor acting as a collaborative partner. Practical strategies and gentle reflection are mixed according to each person’s needs.

Faye draws on methods from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to shape conversations and practice. She also uses Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing when trauma processing is appropriate and agreed. These approaches are used as tools to address anxiety, low mood, sleep problems and past hurts.

Her work covers a broad range of concerns including self-esteem, grief, addiction and life changes such as separation and career transitions. Additional focus areas listed include chronic illness, body image and first responder issues. The emphasis is on short, manageable steps that fit into everyday life.

People who prefer an active, team-based style of counselling may find this approach helpful. Faye aims to support clients to build skills they can use outside sessions and to make decisions that reflect their values and hopes.

How therapeutic approaches guide online counselling

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without being pushed around by them, and to focus on actions that match what matters to them. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and sleep problems by encouraging small workable changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers simple exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it often helps with worry, sleep routine issues and low mood. Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a method used when working through traumatic memories and related symptoms, helping people process distressing experiences when that is appropriate and agreed.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy. The counsellor will help clients decide together which methods suit their goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and plans can be adjusted as progress is made.

Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow for quicker check-ins when needed. Different session arrangements suit different people, so please confirm current options before booking. The focus is on practical ways to bring therapeutic steps into everyday life and to support changes that can improve sleep, reduce worry and help people cope with life’s challenges.
