Celia Flack, BACP

Celia Flack is a counsellor who draws on a blend of talking therapies to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression and the impact of trauma. She works in a warm, non-judgemental way and listens actively to what matters to each person. Celia holds BACP and has seven years of experience in the field, including four years in private practice in the United Kingdom.

Her approach mixes attachment-based ideas with client-centred listening and cognitive tools. That means sessions often focus on understanding early relationship patterns, naming thoughts that keep someone stuck, and finding practical steps that ease daily life. She also pays attention to how the body responds after trauma and includes that in recovery work.

Celia has a particular interest in early childhood neglect, post-traumatic stress and caregiver stress. She supports people dealing with chronic illness, cancer, blended family challenges and complex feelings like guilt, shame or fear of abandonment. Her work is tailored around each person rather than a fixed protocol.

In sessions she emphasises collaboration - the client is treated as the expert on their own story while she offers listening, reflection and structured techniques when helpful. She aims to help people feel steadier, make clearer choices, and notice small changes that matter.

If someone wants to explore working together, they are invited to start with a short matching process to see if there is a good fit before scheduling sessions.

How Celia’s approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how they affect current feelings and connections. It can help people who struggle with trust, abandonment worries or repeating painful relationship habits. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on attentive listening and empathy, giving people space to tell their story and find their own solutions with the counsellor alongside them.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about their needs, goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try. That collaborative process means approaches can change as progress is made or new issues arise.

The biography does not specify session formats here, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, remove travel time and allow appointments from different locations. It can also allow shorter check-ins or meetings that suit a lunchtime break or caregiving schedule. Registered or accredited professionals can use these ways of meeting to continue the same therapeutic tasks as in-person work, such as reflective listening, cognitive exercises and exploring attachment themes.
