About Esnas
Esnas has five years of professional experience and holds BACP. She works to build an open, non-judgemental space where people can speak about difficult feelings. Sessions aim to help people notice patterns and try different ways of coping that fit their everyday life.
Her approach draws on therapies that focus on thoughts, values and relationships. That can mean learning small practical skills for worry, exploring how early attachments affect current relationships, or clarifying what matters most when life feels empty or stuck. Conversations are collaborative and paced by the person seeking help.
Esnas also supports people dealing with more specific issues such as abandonment concerns, dissociation, divorce and separation, domestic violence, and immigration-related distress. She works with grief that comes with end-of-life and hospice contexts, and with the guilt and shame that sometimes follow trauma.
People who choose Esnas will find short, clear explanations and concrete next steps they can try between sessions. She encourages realistic goals and steady progress, recognising that small shifts often lead to bigger change over time.

How Esnas adapts therapeutic approaches for online work
Esnas draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy to guide her online practice. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and try small, value-driven actions even when thoughts or feelings are difficult; it can be useful for anxiety, low motivation and life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and emotional responses, helping people understand relationship wounds and try different ways of relating.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Esnas will discuss different methods and together the person seeking support will decide what feels most useful. That collaborative process includes setting goals, trying techniques, and adjusting the plan as needs and preferences become clearer.
Practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into a busy day and reduced travel time, which can make consistent work more achievable. If you prefer to check which session types are offered, please confirm the current options before booking. The emphasis is on making therapy workable around everyday life while focusing on clear, manageable steps between meetings.
