About

About Åse

Åse Greenacre is a counsellor who aims to help people facing stress, anxiety and parenting challenges. She speaks English, German and Swedish and brings a calm, pragmatic style to sessions. Her BACP credential indicates registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.

She has worked in the UK for many years and has 16 years of professional experience. Her background includes work within the NHS at a GP surgery and time in independent practice.

Background and approach

That mix has given her experience supporting people with depression, low self-esteem and major life changes. Åse focuses on practical conversation and steady support. She listens for strengths in each person’s story and helps them build on those resources.

Topics she commonly addresses include relationship difficulties, grieving, trauma and managing anger. She also helps people with issues around work and career, compassion fatigue and ADHD-related challenges. Parenting is one of the areas listed in her practice, and she offers straightforward strategies parents can try between sessions.

Taking the first step can feel difficult and Åse offers a warm, non-judgemental space to talk things through. Sessions aim to be collaborative and paced to each person’s needs. If a clearer plan is needed, she works alongside clients to set manageable goals and next steps.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches and online options

Åse commonly uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional understanding. One approach helps people identify patterns in thoughts and behaviours and then try out small experiments to change those patterns; this is useful for anxiety, low mood and stress. Another approach concentrates on strengthening emotional awareness and relationship patterns, which can help with intimacy issues, grief and family-related concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they choose ways of working that fit the client's situation and adjust those methods as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make counselling more flexible. Video is good for a longer, face-to-face style conversation. Phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging allow quick check-ins or a different way to express thoughts without being on camera. These options help people fit therapy around work, parenting and busy days.
