About Bethan
Bethan Heap is a psychotherapist who aims to understand what life feels like for each person she meets. She meets people with warmth and curiosity and does not tell them how to live. Bethan listens for what is happening beneath the surface and helps people reconnect with parts of themselves they have learned to quiet or carry alone.
Many people come when they feel stuck between who they have been and who they want to become.
Background and approach
They may feel overwhelmed, numb, shut down or exhausted from saying “I am fine.” Bethan meets people where they are, without pressure or pretence, and begins from whatever feeling they bring. Her style is grounded, collaborative and gently creative.
Sessions move at a thoughtful pace and draw attention to the body as well as thoughts. When words are hard, she may use metaphor, drawing or simple expressive tools to help make inner experiences easier to approach. Bethan blends person-centred work, emotionally focused methods, somatic awareness and parts-based approaches in a way that suits each person.
She also practises Existential therapy and uses that perspective to notice meaning, choice and personal values when people feel adrift. People often bring identity questions, low mood, anxiety, patterns in relationships, life transitions or struggles with self-esteem.
Bethan’s aim is to be honest, kind and practical while helping different parts of the self begin to work together rather than pull in opposite directions.

Online support
How Bethan’s approaches translate to online therapy
Existential therapy looks at meaning, choice and what matters to you. Online sessions can help when life feels hollow, directionless or full of difficult decisions by giving space to notice values and possibilities.Attachment-based work focuses on how relationships shape feelings and behaviour. In video or phone sessions this approach helps identify patterns in connections and practice new ways of relating in day-to-day life.
Client-centred therapy puts your experience at the heart of the work. The therapist follows your lead, offers empathic listening and reflects what matters to you so you feel understood and seen.
Deciding which approach or combination will suit you is part of the therapy. Bethan will work collaboratively to find the right fit based on your needs, goals and preferences. That exploration can happen in the first few sessions and adapt over time.
Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls let you see facial cues and use visual tools, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit easily into a work break, while live chat or text-based messaging allow brief check-ins and more frequent contact between calls. These options make it easier to receive consistent support around daily life and commitments.
