Colette Langridge, NCPS

Colette Langridge is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties. She also supports those working through trauma and abuse, grief, parenting strains, anger, self-esteem issues, and the everyday challenges of living with ADHD. Colette uses straightforward, practical conversations to help people make small changes that feel manageable.

She qualified in 2012 and brings 12 years of experience to her work. Colette describes her approach as integrative, matching the way she works to each person's needs rather than using one fixed method. Sessions often look at how past relationships and attachment patterns shape current feelings and behaviours.

Colette draws on several ways of working, including attachment-based thinking, client-centred listening, cognitive behavioural ideas, mindfulness, and psychodynamic perspectives. She may also include gentle body-focused, sensorimotor techniques when people notice physical symptoms linked to memory or stress.

People are invited to reflect on past experiences while building practical steps for day-to-day life. Conversations focus on clearer thinking, calmer routines, and habits that support wellbeing. The aim is to increase confidence, reduce overwhelm, and find more satisfying ways of coping.

Starting therapy is presented as a collaborative decision. Prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and can schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability.

How Colette’s approaches translate to online work

Colette commonly uses attachment-based ideas and cognitive behavioural techniques in her work. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape how people relate now and helps with intimacy, trust and communication struggles. Cognitive behavioural methods focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and building practical habits to reduce anxiety and lift mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods suit a person's goals and preferences, and may blend approaches as needed to address both thoughts and everyday habits.

The biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives by removing travel time and allowing sessions to be scheduled around work or family routines. It can also make shorter check-ins simpler when time is limited, and allow people to choose quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera if that helps them engage more comfortably.
