About Cherrelle

Cherrelle Goddard is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with nine years of clinical experience working primarily with young people. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, self-esteem and coping with life changes. Cherrelle combines several approaches to help people address emotional and behavioural concerns.

She works integratively, using systemic, person-centred, cognitive behavioural and psychodynamic ideas to guide sessions. That means conversations can range from exploring relationships and patterns to learning practical skills for managing feelings. Sessions are often collaborative and paced to the young person’s needs.

Her background also includes social work registration with Social Work England and experience supporting young people and families involved with social care. This has given her practical experience with safeguarding, child protection, children in care and reunification matters.

Cherrelle describes her style as curious, creative and relational. In practice she listens, asks questions, and helps people map out steps they can try between sessions. She pays attention to strengths while also addressing painful experiences such as abuse and trauma.

She works with a range of specific issues linked to relationships and identity, including abandonment and attachment concerns, blended family problems, body image, communication difficulties, guilt, shame and isolation. She also supports people coping with self-harm, social anxiety and phobia and struggles around self-love.

Therapeutic approaches and how they help online

She integrates systemic, person-centred, cognitive behavioural and psychodynamic ideas in her work. Systemic thinking looks at patterns in relationships and family dynamics and helps when problems are linked to how people relate to one another. Person-centred work emphasises listening and the young person’s perspective, supporting them to make sense of feelings and choices. Cognitive behavioural ideas focus on identifying thought and behaviour patterns and trying practical strategies to reduce anxiety or improve mood.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Cherrelle will work with the young person to test what feels useful and adjust the way sessions run based on needs, goals and preferences. That may mean more skills practice some weeks and reflective conversation in others.

The original biography does not state which online session formats are offered. Please confirm the available session types before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed and remove travel time. It also lets conversations continue when geographical distance would otherwise interrupt progress.
