About Felicity

Felicity Woolsey is a counsellor who uses a humanistic, client-centred approach. She places the person at the heart of therapy and starts by looking at the root causes of current struggles. Felicity combines talking therapy with practical skills when needed to help people manage day-to-day problems.

She commonly uses cognitive behavioural techniques to support people who are anxious, depressed, or struggling with low self-esteem. Mindfulness practices are offered to help with stress, emotional regulation, and sleep-related concerns. The overall aim is to give simple tools that can be used between sessions.

Felicity has five years' experience working in substance misuse rehabilitation and mental health ward settings. That background included running group sessions and offering approaches drawn from dialectical behaviour ideas such as emotional regulation and distress tolerance. Her experience also includes work with addictions, relationship difficulties, and eating-related concerns.

People come to her for a wide range of issues including grief, trauma, parenting strain, career stress, LGBT matters, and intimacy-related problems. She also lists support for ADHD, bipolar mood issues, and attachment-related difficulties. Where sleep and rest are a concern, she integrates calming practices and behavioural ideas to help restore better routines.

Felicity is an individual member of the NCPS. She works from the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English. Prospective clients are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling so sessions can be arranged in line with her practice procedures.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Felicity combines client-centred counselling with cognitive behavioural and mindfulness techniques. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and helping a person explore what matters to them so they can find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and offers practical steps to change them, which can help with anxiety, low mood and sleep problems. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and improve sleep quality.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then adapt sessions as understanding grows. Clients are invited to feedback so the plan can be changed if needed, keeping the process collaborative.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make fitting sessions into a busy life easier, for example by removing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins during work breaks. It also makes it possible to keep continuity with a particular counsellor when travel or relocation is a factor. Ask about the available session types when you complete the matching questionnaire so practical arrangements suit your routine.
