Angela Diac, BACP, NCPS

Angela Diac is a psychotherapist with 12 years of professional experience practising in the United Kingdom. She offers online counselling and psychotherapy for common struggles such as anxiety, stress, depression, grief and life transitions. Angela aims to be genuine, empathic and non-judgemental while working at the pace set by each person. Her background includes study in Existential, Psychodynamic and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, with a Person Centred Approach at the heart of her work. That means sessions focus on the individual's concerns and priorities, and Angela aims to walk alongside clients as they set goals and explore change. She describes her style as gentle and easy to connect with. Angela has particular experience with issues that arise from moving abroad or living as an expat. She can help people who feel stuck, overwhelmed or lonely after relocation and wants to support finding purpose, rebuilding routines and managing cultural adaptation. Clients also come to her for help with relationships, parenting stress, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related concerns, self-esteem and coping with ageing or end-of-life matters. She works with a wide range of emotional responses including anger, guilt, sadness and emptiness. In sessions Angela combines talking, practical skills and reflective work. She encourages self-acceptance, new perspective and skill practice between appointments. The overall aim is to help people feel more confident, less anxious and better able to cope with life changes.

Approaches that guide online therapy

Person Centred work places the person's experience at the centre of sessions, helping people feel heard and accepted while they clarify what they want to change. This approach is useful for building self-acceptance and confidence during major life transitions.

Existential approaches invite people to consider meaning, choice and personal values when facing difficult decisions or losses. It can help when someone is questioning purpose or dealing with uncertainty. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact and offers practical strategies to reduce anxiety and manage mood symptoms.

Choosing the right way of working is part of the process, and Angela treats it as a collaborative decision. She will discuss options, try different techniques and adjust the approach as the client's needs, goals and preferences become clearer.

If you are considering online therapy, check the available session options before booking as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to attend when living abroad or between moves, but current practice does not accept international clients.
