About Brett

Brett Garcia is a counsellor who uses an integrative approach with a clear focus on existential ideas. He frames concerns around meaning, choice and personal responsibility while also looking at how relationships and past experiences shape present feelings. Brett offers straightforward, compassionate support for people facing stress, anxiety, depression and life transitions.

He draws on 20 years of experience working in the United Kingdom and internationally. His practice blends client-centred work with attachment ideas and cognitive strategies when they help.

Background and approach

Sessions aim to make difficult thoughts and feelings easier to talk about and to find practical ways forward. Brett has worked in senior clinical roles within the NHS and across health, education and social care. That background informs his work with people who face chronic stress, burnout, or pressure in their roles.

He also supports people exploring identity, neurodiversity, and long-term medical or caregiving challenges. His approach is trauma-informed and neurodiversity-affirming. Brett pays attention to communication styles and adapts the pace of therapy to what feels manageable.

He combines reflective conversation with techniques to reduce symptoms and improve day-to-day coping. Sessions are conducted in English and Brett works with people from diverse backgrounds. He aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk through difficult issues and build clearer ways to handle them.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches you can access online

Existential therapy focuses on questions of meaning, purpose and choice. It helps people facing life transitions, identity concerns or feelings of emptiness by encouraging honest reflection and practical choices about how to live. Attachment-based therapy looks at patterns from early relationships and how they affect current connections and trust. It can help people who struggle with closeness, communication or repetitive relationship problems.

Brett sees finding the right approach as a joint process. He works collaboratively to match techniques to a person’s needs, goals and preferences. That means drawing on existential ideas, attachment work or client-centred conversation as the situation requires and checking in about what feels useful.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a shorter check-in or an option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer to write, want brief check-ins, or need contact outside traditional hours. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel, while still keeping therapy consistent and practical.
