Thomas Quayle, BACP

Thomas Quayle works from a person-centred approach. He creates a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about what they are carrying. Tom aims to help people feel steadier and regain a sense of control in everyday life.

He draws on several practical therapies such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address anxiety, depression, stress and addictions. Sessions are shaped around what matters to the individual and move at a pace that feels comfortable.

Tom has four years of experience as a counsellor and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. His background includes work with issues linked to relationships, intimacy, family concerns and parenting, as well as eating and sleeping problems.

He also focuses on matters such as abandonment, attachment issues, body image, infertility-related concerns, impulsivity and substance misuse. Trauma and abuse, anger, guilt and shame are among other areas he supports people to talk through.

Tom uses straightforward conversations and collaborative problem solving to help people make changes. He draws on solution-focused ideas when people want quick practical steps, and trauma-focused approaches when past experiences are getting in the way of daily life.

How therapeutic approaches shape online counselling

Thomas uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being pushed around by them, and to clarify personal values so actions match what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and to practise small changes that ease anxiety and low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then suggest a blend of methods. This is a collaborative process that can be adjusted as therapy progresses.

Please check which session formats are offered before booking, since the biography does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer not to be on camera or who need sessions that fit around work and family commitments.
