About Ceri
Ceri Parry is a counsellor who blends existential thinking with practical therapy tools to help people find meaning and manage day-to-day struggles. She holds registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and brings five years of clinical practice alongside prior nursing experience. Ceri works in English and offers sessions to people in the United Kingdom and internationally.
People come to Ceri for help with anxiety, stress, depression, trauma, addictive behaviours and issues with eating or body image.
Background and approach
She also supports those facing work-related strain, burnout, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, parenting stresses and major life changes. Her background in nursing informs her understanding of long-term illness and chronic pain concerns. Ceri uses a mix of approaches that suit each person.
Existential therapy helps people talk about purpose, meaning and values. Attachment-based and client-centred ways of working focus on building trust and understanding relational patterns. Cognitive behavioural techniques and dialectical skills provide tools for managing strong emotions and unhelpful thinking.
Her clinical experience includes one-to-one therapy and group work in addiction settings, plus roles in adult mental health services and primary care. She has an MSc in Psychology research on individual differences and deception, and a BSc (Hons) with first-class honours covering CBT and pain management. Sessions are offered through video calls, phone, live chat or text messaging.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Existential therapy pays attention to questions of meaning, choice and values. Online work uses conversation to spot themes such as purpose, identity and life direction and then helps people reflect on options and next steps. Attachment-based work focuses on patterns in relationships and how those early experiences shape current connections; sessions aim to build a steady, trusting relationship where new ways of relating can be tried out.Client-centred therapy places the person at the heart of the work, using empathic listening and acceptance so people feel heard. That style supports people who need space to make their own decisions, and it pairs well with more directive techniques when practical tools are needed. Finding the right mix is a collaborative process: the therapist will check in about goals, preferences and what helps most, then agree a plan together and adjust it over time.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video is useful for fuller conversation and non-verbal cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins, and live chat or messaging can suit ongoing reflections or quick support between calls. These options increase flexibility, letting people fit therapy around work, family and other commitments while using approaches that match their needs.
