About Esther
Esther Fendall is a counsellor who offers a warm, straightforward approach to therapy. She creates a non-judgemental space where people can talk about what’s worrying them. Esther works alongside clients at a pace that suits them and helps them make sense of difficult feelings and situations.
Esther follows the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy Ethical Framework and practises as an integrative therapist, drawing on a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques to match each person's needs. She aims to help people set realistic goals and take small steps towards them while building a clearer understanding of their thoughts and emotions.
She brings 14 years of experience from varied settings. This includes private practice, work in a medical practice, a drug addiction service, and volunteer roles with a UK mental health charity. That background informs a practical style that values honesty and empathy.
Esther supports people facing many concerns, including anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and parenting strains, stress, self-esteem, and difficulties linked to trauma, addiction and eating. She also addresses issues such as caregiver stress, chronic illness, attachment and body image, and coping with natural or human-caused disaster.
Esther has personal experience of how therapy can be transformative. She lived for many years in Ecuador and now resides by the coast in the United Kingdom. Her lived and professional experience shapes a calm, grounded way of working.
How Esther’s approaches work in online therapy
Esther describes herself as an integrative therapist who draws from evidence-based therapeutic techniques. That means she blends approaches to suit a person’s situation rather than using only one method. Examples of techniques she may draw on include talking therapies that help people understand and reframe thoughts, and structured problem-solving methods that support practical steps when people feel stuck.Choosing the right approach is part of the work done together. Esther will discuss what feels most useful, try methods collaboratively, and adjust the plan as goals and needs become clearer. This helps keep therapy relevant and grounded in what the person wants to achieve.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by removing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a workday. It also lets people continue contact when they are away from their usual area.
