Cherelle Medas, BACP

Cherelle Medas is a professional counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation, and she offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people who are feeling overwhelmed by life changes, stress, anxiety or low mood. Cherelle focuses on helping clients build coping skills and regain confidence in day-to-day life.

She works one-to-one with people who want to manage anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting stress and career pressures. She also supports those dealing with burnout, compassion fatigue and issues around self-esteem and body image. Her work covers a range of emotional concerns including panic, feelings of emptiness, guilt and shame, and difficulties around attachment and abandonment.

Cherelle uses a mix of approaches tailored to the person in front of her. She draws on client-centred listening to prioritise each person’s goals and uses cognitive behavioural ideas to spot unhelpful thinking patterns. She also considers deeper life questions and past patterns where these seem relevant.

Sessions aim to be practical and focused. Cherelle helps people learn new ways of coping, set realistic goals and practice small changes between meetings. She welcomes those who want personal development as well as people facing a crisis.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to her availability. Fees are managed via a subscription that can be cancelled at any time, and further details are provided during the sign-up process.

How her approaches translate to online counselling

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps people notice and change patterns of thinking and behaviour that cause distress. It is practical and problem-focused, often useful for anxiety, panic and low mood. Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of sessions; the counsellor listens closely and follows the client’s priorities to build trust and self-understanding.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Cherelle will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest ways of working that match those needs. That choice is collaborative and can evolve as the work continues.

The original biography does not list specific online formats, so please confirm the session options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people keep appointments from more convenient locations and can help maintain continuity when life gets in the way of attending in person.
