Esnas Turnbull

Esnas Turnbull is a counsellor registered with the BACP and has five years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem and compassion fatigue, and she also works with people around career concerns and life purpose. Esnas uses clear, practical conversation to help people who feel stuck or unsure what comes next.

Her practice draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy. In sessions she helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, test small changes and practise skills between meetings. Conversations are direct but gentle, focused on what is practical for daily life and work.

Esnas also supports people coping with abandonment, attachment issues, relationship commitment concerns and the effects of family of origin problems. She works with those affected by divorce and separation, domestic violence, and complicated grief, as well as people dealing with dissociation or the emotional fallout from immigration or disaster. She listens for how past relationships shape present choices and uses that to guide the work.

The therapist describes using client-centred and existential ideas alongside structured techniques from CBT. That mix is aimed at helping people weigh values, make clearer decisions, and build steadier routines. Sessions are offered in English and Esnas accepts international clients, so people based outside the UK can enquire about working together.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Costs vary by location and sessions are billed through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How psychological approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking small, value-driven steps. It can help when uncertainty or avoidance get in the way of making choices about work or life purpose.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses practical exercises and short experiments to test unhelpful beliefs and build new routines, which suits problems like anxiety and low motivation.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people see how attachment styles affect choices about intimacy, commitment and feeling safe in relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Esnas will collaborate with clients to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. That means adjusting the mix of ACT, CBT or attachment-focused work as the therapy progresses.

Please confirm the available session formats before booking because the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, avoid travel, or choose a shorter check-in when needed. Registered and accredited professionals often use these practical benefits to help therapy fit everyday life without changing the core therapeutic work.
