About Belinda

Belinda Gray is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has 14 years of professional experience. She works with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and intimacy issues, trauma and abuse, grief, and mood concerns. Belinda also supports people facing life changes, parenting strain, sleep and eating difficulties, and challenges connected to ADHD and bipolar presentations.

Belinda uses an open, client-centred way of working. Sessions focus on what the person brings each week. She encourages straightforward conversations about thoughts, feelings and behaviours and helps people spot patterns that cause difficulty.

She draws on a mix of practical methods. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps break unhelpful thinking and behaviour cycles. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports people to clarify values and take manageable action. Mindfulness approaches teach simple attention skills for stress and emotional regulation.

Belinda also pays attention to attachment and relationship dynamics. That can help when past losses, abandonment, or repeated relational patterns affect current connections. She helps people map how these patterns show up in work, romance and friendships.

Sessions are offered in English and Belinda works with international clients. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first appointment is scheduled.

How Belinda’s approaches work for online sessions

Belinda commonly uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in her work. CBT looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers step-by-step strategies to change unhelpful patterns. ACT helps people clarify what matters to them and take small practical steps in that direction while accepting difficult emotions.

She also draws on attachment-based ideas to understand how early relationships shape current behaviour and expectations. That perspective can help when repeated patterns show up in friendships, romantic relationships or family contact.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Belinda will talk with the client about their needs, goals and preferences and suggest methods that might fit. She adapts what she uses as the work progresses, so the approach can change if something else seems more useful.

The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy into a busy week and reducing travel time. Before booking, confirm which session formats are currently offered, since the biography does not list specific formats. Online sessions can make it easier to have shorter check-ins, avoid camera use when needed, or fit a session around study or work commitments.
