Fauve Novak, BACP

Fauve Novak helps people who are feeling stressed, anxious or low. She supports those struggling with self-esteem, relationship difficulties, ADHD and panic symptoms. Fauve aims to make starting therapy straightforward for someone feeling overwhelmed.

She works in a client-centred way. That means conversations focus on what matters to the person in front of her. Fauve listens without judgement and adapts the pace and direction to suit each individual.

In sessions she will help people name what is most troubling them. Together they will look at patterns of thinking and behaviour that get in the way. She encourages small, practical steps clients can try between meetings to test new ways of coping.

Fauve is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which she lists as BACP. She has three years of professional experience in the UK providing one-to-one care. She describes her approach as respectful, sensitive and compassionate.

People who feel isolated, are navigating separation or divorce, or who struggle with social anxiety and communication problems may find it useful to talk things through with her. Fauve emphasises collaboration and tailors discussions to the concerns and goals people bring to sessions.

How client-centred work translates to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy centres on listening and creating a respectful space. The therapist follows the client's concerns and helps people clarify their goals. This approach can help with issues such as anxiety, low mood, relationship worries and self-esteem by focusing on what the person finds most important.

In practice this means sessions are driven by the client's priorities. The therapist helps people notice patterns and try small changes between meetings. Choosing the right way to work together is a shared task - the therapist will discuss options and adapt methods to fit the client's needs, goals and preferences.

Check the session formats before booking because the biography does not list specific options. Many people find online arrangements make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Others choose arrangements that suit quieter surroundings or less reliance on video. The focus is on making therapy realistic to keep progress moving while matching the way a person prefers to work.
