About Billel
Billel Addad is a BACP counsellor with 16 years' experience based in the United Kingdom. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and parenting concerns, addiction, grief, trauma and anger. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted.
Billel uses straightforward conversation to identify what is getting in the way of daily functioning. He draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to spot patterns of thought and behaviour that keep problems active. He also uses attachment-based thinking to look at how early relationships affect current reactions and connection to others.
His approach is client-centred in the sense that sessions focus on what the person wants to change. Practical steps and simple behavioural experiments are often part of the work alongside talking through feelings and memories. The aim is to develop clearer ways to respond when stress, anger or panic arise.
Billel has supported people coping with life changes, workplace stress, parenting strain, substance use concerns and long-term mood issues. He has also worked with people following physical trauma or emotional abuse, and with those managing grief and loss.

How sessions work
Approaches used in online sessions
Billel commonly draws on cognitive behavioural therapy to help identify unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns. CBT work often includes simple experiments and practical steps to test new ways of responding to stress, worry or anger.He also uses attachment-based ideas to explore how past relationships shape current emotional reactions and connection problems. That work can help when resentment, intimacy issues or recurring conflict appear in close relationships. Client-centred work underpins sessions by focusing on what the person wants to change and allowing the session pace to adjust to those goals.
Finding the right approach is part of the process and he will work collaboratively to decide what fits. The therapist and client review goals and adjust methods as needed so the sessions respond to changing priorities and practical life demands.
The original biography does not list specific session formats here, so confirm which formats are offered before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work or travel, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce time spent on travel. These practical benefits can help keep progress consistent while balancing everyday responsibilities.
