About Ebi

Ebi Mensah is a BACP counsellor who offers person-centred care with an integrative outlook. She brings warmth and presence to sessions and aims to help parents and individuals manage stress, anxiety and difficult life changes. Her style is conversational and practical, focused on helping people feel heard and start making changes that matter to them.

She draws on attachment ideas to help clients understand patterns in close relationships and emotional responses.

Background and approach

Cognitive techniques are used when useful to challenge unhelpful thoughts and build coping skills. The work often mixes listening, psychoeducation and small practical steps between sessions. Mensah has five years of professional experience and has supported people with many concerns, including low mood, grief, anger, self-esteem and compassion fatigue.

She also works with those facing family difficulties, relationship strains and parenting stresses, helping people untangle recurring problems and find clearer ways forward. Her background as a British African counsellor informs her awareness of cultural pressures and differing beliefs.

She describes herself as someone who notices when people feel unseen, and she aims to create a calm space where those experiences can be named and understood. Sessions can include shorter check-ins or longer exploratory work depending on what a person needs.

She frames therapy as a collaborative journey and encourages people to try different approaches so they can discover what helps them most.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches for online parenting support

Attachment-Based Therapy is used to look at how early relationship patterns shape feelings and reactions today. It helps people see why they respond to closeness or distance in certain ways and supports changes in those patterns. Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience at the centre of sessions, with the counsellor offering empathic listening and reflection so people can find their own answers. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is used to spot unhelpful thoughts and try small, practical experiments to reduce anxiety or low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, then suggest ways to combine methods. This is collaborative and can change as the work progresses, so people can try different ways of working until something fits.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation when eye contact and visual cues help. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a busy day. Messaging and live chat suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around parenting duties, work and other commitments.
