Deborah Flett, NCPS

Deborah Flett is a counsellor who draws on a person-centred, pluralistic approach. She uses clear conversations and shared decisions to help people take the first steps towards change. Deborah works in adult services and brings three years of experience supporting people through difficult life stages.

She commonly helps with stress, anxiety and depression. She also supports people facing relationship strain, career uncertainty, grief and complex trauma. Issues such as addiction, self-esteem, sleep problems and anger are within her practice scope.

Deborah combines Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centred ways, cognitive behavioural techniques, hypnotherapy and psychodynamic ideas. In practice this means she listens first, then suggests practical steps, reflective talk or activity-based work according to what a person prefers.

Her sessions focus on what a person wants to achieve. She uses shared decision making so each plan suits the individual. That might include short-term tasks, talking through past patterns, or using specific tools to manage symptoms.

Deborah is registered with NCPS. She works from the United Kingdom and offers therapy in English. If someone is ready to explore change she offers supportive, respectful guidance to help them move forward.

How Deborah’s approaches can work online

Deborah uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice difficult thoughts and then take actions that match their values. ACT is often useful for stress, anxiety and life transitions because it focuses on meaningful steps rather than fighting thoughts.

She also draws on client-centred therapy, which places the person’s priorities first. This means sessions often begin with open conversation and active listening, so the counsellor follows what matters most to the person and supports their choices.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Deborah will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

The practical benefits of online work can include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Some people prefer shorter check-ins when time is limited, or audio-only conversations when video feels difficult; please confirm which session formats are offered before booking. The focus remains on applying chosen tools and conversations so therapy can be integrated into everyday life.
