About Oliver

Oliver Tatchell is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief and low self-esteem. He supports those struggling with depression, motivation and confidence. He aims to make the first step easier by offering steady, non-judgemental support.

Oliver works to build an open environment where people can talk about difficult feelings. He keeps things straightforward and practical. Sessions focus on what matters most to the client and on small steps that can make life feel more manageable.

With four years of professional experience in the United Kingdom, Oliver draws on approaches that centre the client’s experience. He uses Client-Centred Therapy to listen and reflect, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thinking patterns.

He also integrates Mindfulness techniques to help with present-moment stress and Trauma-Focused ideas when past events are disrupting daily life. These methods are used alongside simple coping strategies for sleep, eating and everyday routine challenges.

Oliver works with a wide range of concerns including relationship and intimacy issues, parenting stress, addictions, ADHD and coping with natural or human-caused disaster. He also addresses less often spoken difficulties such as abandonment, attachment and body-image worries.

How Oliver’s approaches work online and in sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the individual. It helps people feel heard and encourages them to lead the pace and direction of sessions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical tools to change unhelpful patterns, which can help with anxiety, low mood and sleep problems.

Finding the best approach is part of the work together. Oliver will talk with the client about goals, daily routines and what feels most useful, then suggest ways of working that fit those needs. That choice is collaborative and may change as progress is made.

The biography does not list specific online or phone formats, so please confirm the available session types before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also make it simpler to keep continuity after life disruptions, such as relocating or dealing with an emergency. Registered or accredited professionals often use a mix of techniques that translate to remote conversations, and Oliver aims to adapt client-centred and CBT tools so they work in the format you choose.
