About Bethan
Bethan Heap is a psychotherapist registered with NCPS and has three years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. She works with adults on issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship patterns and life changes. Sessions use a mix of talking, body-focused awareness and creative exercises where helpful.
Bethan describes her role as sitting beside clients with curiosity rather than telling them what to do. She pays attention to both feelings and physical sensations. If words are hard, she may use metaphor, drawing or simple expressive tools to help people make sense of their experience.
People usually come when they feel stuck between who they have had to be and who they want to become. Common starting points include feeling numb, exhausted from pretending to be fine, experiencing repeated relationship patterns, or losing a sense of identity. She also works with parenting concerns, grief, trauma and intimacy-related difficulties.
Her approach combines client-centred work, emotionally-focused methods, somatic awareness and parts-based ideas. This means sessions often slow down to notice bodily signals, name emotions and explore different internal parts that feel in conflict. The emphasis is on collaboration and practical ways to engage with feelings.
Bethan trained with a Masters in Psychotherapy and Counselling with Contemporary Creative Approaches and holds a BSc in Psychology. She is registered as a psychotherapist with NCPS. Therapy is presented in plain language and aims to help people reconnect with aspects of themselves they have learned to quiet or hide.

How attachment, emotion work and somatic awareness fit online
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships. It looks at how early bonds shape current reactions and helps name and change repeating patterns in adult relationships.Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on feeling states and how they show up between people and within the self. It helps people identify core emotions and practise different ways of responding when strong feelings arise.
Somatic approaches attend to bodily sensations alongside thoughts and feelings. They use simple awareness of the body to notice tension, grounding or mobilisation, which can help when emotions feel overwhelming or diffuse.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try. That collaborative process helps shape each person’s plan rather than following a fixed formula.
Confirm the current session formats before booking, as options are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments around busy days, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also supports using creative or somatic exercises in-session, with the therapist guiding simple practices and reflective tasks that fit into everyday life.
