Oriana Wallace-Johnson

Oriana Wallace-Johnson is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has four years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and shifts in motivation. Her practice also includes concerns around relationships, grief, intimacy, sleep problems, parenting strains, career questions and life purpose.

Her approach centres on Client-Centred Therapy. Sessions focus on listening first and then reflecting what she hears back. Clients can expect plain conversation about what is troubling them, with time to name feelings and test out different ways of responding to problems.

Oriana aims to make the therapy session a place to talk without judgement. She encourages practical steps alongside talking, such as small behaviour changes or communication experiments that can be tried between sessions. She also helps people notice patterns that keep them stuck, and explores options when life is changing.

Her background includes work with trauma, domestic violence, chronic illness and issues such as abandonment, fertility concerns and obsessive thoughts. She has four years of practice supporting people through midlife questions, money worries, infertility stress, and the grief that follows loss.

Sessions are conducted in English and are offered to people living in the United Kingdom. The cost varies by location and uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, prospective clients select the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

How her approach fits with online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy places the client’s experience at the centre of each session. The therapist listens carefully, reflects what she hears, and follows the client’s lead to explore issues such as anxiety, trauma, low self-esteem and concerns about life purpose. This approach suits people who want conversations that focus on understanding their feelings and testing practical steps.

Working out which method feels most useful is part of the work. She will discuss options with each person and make decisions together based on the client’s situation, goals and comfort with different ways of working. That collaborative process helps shape what happens in session and between sessions.

The original profile does not list specific online formats. Please confirm the current session options before booking. Many people find remote sessions easier to fit around work and family commitments, reduce travel time and allow a quieter start or finish to the day. Some formats need less internet bandwidth or do not require video, which can suit shorter check-ins or when less screen time is preferable. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt Client-Centred methods for remote work, using conversation and simple tasks to address stress, relationships and life purpose questions.
