About Belinda
Belinda Gray is a counsellor with 14 years of experience based in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety and the effects of trauma and abuse. She also supports people with addictions, depression, self-esteem and parenting concerns.
Belinda aims to create an open, non-judgemental space where thoughts and feelings can be shared. She encourages small, practical steps so people can try things that feel doable.
Background and approach
Her style is warm and direct, with attention to what matters most to each person. In sessions she draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people notice thoughts and take actions that reflect their values. Attachment-based ideas inform her work where relationship patterns and connection are central.
Mindfulness practices are used to reduce overwhelm and build calm. Belinda has supported people through grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and life transitions. She also works with concerns like eating and sleeping difficulties, anger, career stress and managing ADHD symptoms.
Her additional focus areas include body image, codependency and communication problems. People describe the first steps into therapy as daunting, and Belinda aims to make that start straightforward. She invites people to bring their real day-to-day struggles and to try out approaches that fit their life.
Practical tools and steady support are offered alongside reflective conversation.

Therapeutic approaches for online support
Belinda commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in her online work. ACT focuses on helping people clarify their values and take meaningful action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present, which can help with anxiety, depression and life changes. CBT looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and provides practical exercises to reduce unhelpful patterns and improve mood and coping.She also uses attachment-based ideas when relationship patterns are important. This approach helps people notice how early patterns affect current connections and offers ways to change how they relate to others. Choosing the right mix of approaches is collaborative - the therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then adjust the work over time.
Online sessions offer flexibility for people with busy lives. Video calls approximate face-to-face conversation, phone sessions are useful when video is difficult, and brief live chat or text-based messaging can suit quick check-ins or follow-up between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting or travel commitments while keeping the focus on practical skills and steady progress.
