About Rochelle
Rochelle Armstrong is a counsellor and a registered member of the BACP. She supports adults facing anxiety, stress, low self-esteem and the long shadow of past trauma. She has a particular interest in cultural and mixed-identity concerns and aims to help people feel more seen and grounded in who they are.
Rochelle meets people with warmth and straightforward care. She listens without judgement and helps clients name what feels hard.
How Rochelle works
Sessions are practical and paced to each person, with space to notice patterns and emotions that have been hard to put into words. Her work draws on person-centred principles, which means the conversation follows the client’s priorities rather than a fixed agenda. She also uses elements of cognitive behavioural approaches to address unhelpful thoughts and reduce anxiety.
Attachment-informed ideas are used to look at how past relationships affect current feelings and ways of relating. Rochelle also brings reflective tools influenced by Jungian ideas to support identity exploration and meaning-making. Over time she helps people build clearer self-understanding, steadier emotional regulation, and healthier ways of relating to others.
Before training as a counsellor she completed a degree in counselling and has seven years of practice experience. She also runs talks and workshops on equality, diversity and inclusion, focusing on identity, belonging and self-acceptance. Her practice is based in the United Kingdom and sessions are offered in English.

Therapeutic approaches that suit online work
Attachment-informed work looks at how early relationships shape how people feel and relate now. This approach helps when someone wants to understand recurring patterns in relationships, feeling unsafe with closeness, or issues around abandonment.Client-centred therapy focuses on the person’s own priorities, with the counsellor offering empathy and acceptance while the client finds their voice. It helps people who need a steady, respectful space to make sense of emotions and identity.
Cognitive behavioural ideas are about noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical exercises. These techniques often help reduce anxiety and improve everyday coping skills.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Rochelle will work with each person to identify which methods feel most helpful, and adjust the mix over time based on goals and preferences.
If you are considering online work, please check which session formats are currently offered before booking. Many people find online sessions useful for fitting therapy around busy days, avoiding travel time, or keeping appointments from different locations. They can also make shorter check-ins easier to schedule. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt these approaches so they still focus on the client’s needs and everyday challenges.
