About Grant

Grant Roberts is a BACP-registered counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 25 years of experience. He works with young adults and others on stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, grief and issues around self-esteem and motivation.

Grant uses a person-centred approach at his core, which means he listens closely and follows what matters most to each person. He combines that base with other methods to help people manage overwhelming feelings and build day-to-day coping skills.

Clients can expect conversations that look at what is happening now and how past patterns still affect current choices. Grant draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and on attachment-based ideas to understand how relationships shape emotional responses.

He also uses elements of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy to offer practical tools for distress tolerance and values-led action. That mix is chosen to fit the issue being worked on rather than a single fixed model.

Sessions often focus on small, repeatable steps to reduce anxiety, improve sleep and rebuild confidence. Grant can help people who are struggling with eating concerns, addiction patterns, intimacy-related issues and the effects of trauma and abuse.

Those interested in starting are asked to use the online booking flow to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Fees vary with location and are handled through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

Therapeutic approaches and online work

Grant often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that align with personal values. ACT can help with anxiety, motivation and coping with difficult feelings. He also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationship patterns influence current reactions and difficulties in intimacy.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and agree together which methods to try. That collaborative decision-making helps shape a plan that fits the person rather than fitting the person to a model.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around study, work or commuting, and shorter check-ins or audio-only calls may suit days when video feels like too much. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt techniques such as CBT exercises, ACT values work and DBT distress-tolerance skills to remote sessions so practical tools can be learned and practised between appointments.
