Åse Greenacre, BACP

Åse Greenacre welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck or worn down by life. She introduces a calm, steady presence and listens for the practical problems beneath the worry. Åse encourages small, useful steps and helps people find ways to use their existing strengths.

She trained and practised in the UK and has 16 years of professional experience. Her background includes work within the NHS at a GP surgery and in independent practice. Åse grew up in Sweden and has lived for long periods abroad, which informs her approach to cultural differences and life transitions.

Sessions focus on immediate concerns such as stress, anxiety, low self esteem and depression. Åse also supports people facing parenting challenges, separation and relationship difficulties, and bereavement. She pays attention to how everyday routines like sleep and eating affect mood and energy.

Her style is down-to-earth and collaborative. Clients are invited to tell their story and to identify small, realistic changes that will help. Åse believes people already have strengths they can build on and she works alongside them to make those strengths useful.

Practical matters such as career pressure, compassion fatigue and ADHD features are also included in her work. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts them to each person's needs. Åse is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

Sessions are conducted in English, German and Swedish, and she practices from the United Kingdom. To begin, people are asked to use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

How evidence-based techniques work online

Åse uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and coping. One common approach helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test them against real-life evidence to reduce anxiety and low mood; it is useful for stress, worry and depression. A second approach concentrates on building routines and small habits around sleep, eating and daily structure to lift energy and improve emotional steadiness; this is helpful for sleeping problems, low motivation and mood swings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Åse will talk through what feels most relevant, try different ways of working, and adjust methods to match a person's goals and preferences. The process is collaborative and paced to what the person can manage.

Confirm the exact session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow more flexibility around work or childcare. It can also allow shorter check-ins when time is tight or sessions without video when bandwidth or camera use is difficult. Registered or accredited professionals can tailor how they work to fit everyday life and practical needs.
