Scott Mottram, BACP

Scott Mottram helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood or big life changes. He is Scott Mottram, BACP, and he offers a calm, non-judgemental space to talk through what is happening now and what has happened before. He writes plainly and works with people who want practical steps as well as clearer understanding.

Scott uses a mix of psychological approaches rather than one fixed method. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to look at thoughts and behaviours, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to focus on values and living well, and Attachment-Based ideas to understand relationship patterns. He also uses client-centred ways of working to keep sessions grounded in the person’s own priorities.

In sessions Scott aims to help people untangle what is holding them back. He offers tools that can be practised between meetings and simple ways to test what helps day to day. Conversations are aimed at making change feel manageable rather than overwhelming.

Scott has been working in counselling for 10 years and holds BACP accreditation, which is recorded as BACP. He is based in the United Kingdom and works in English. He does not take international clients.

There is a short telephone pre-assessment offered so prospective clients can ask questions before committing. To begin, a short questionnaire and scheduling step are used to match people to the right appointment time.

Approach-driven online counselling that fits your life

Scott commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in his work. ACT focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking small steps to live in line with those values even when feelings are difficult. CBT looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss what matters to you, try different methods and agree together which tools feel most useful for your goals and preferences.
