Teresa Readhead, BACP

Teresa Readhead is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with seven years of professional experience. She works with people managing stress and anxiety, addiction concerns, family conflict, grief and loss, and related issues such as anger and self-esteem. Teresa uses straightforward conversation to help clients get a clearer sense of what is going on for them.

Her style is conversational and grounded. She aims to make time for what matters in a session and to help people say what they find hard to say. Teresa pays attention to how past relationships influence current patterns and to the practical steps someone can try between meetings.

Teresa draws on attachment-based ideas to look at relationship patterns. She also uses client-centred practice to follow what each person wants to focus on, and cognitive behavioural tools to map and test unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. Mindfulness techniques and narrative work are used when they fit the client's goals.

Sessions cover everyday problems as well as longer-running difficulties. Teresa helps people who are dealing with life changes, grief, addiction recovery, or work-related stress. She also supports those sorting out intimacy and communication problems, career worries, and sleep or eating concerns.

People who come to Teresa usually want practical routes to feel less reactive and to rebuild more reliable habits. She encourages small steps, reflective conversations, and exercises that can be practised outside sessions. The emphasis is on clarity, regular review, and adapting the approach as needed.
