About Collette
Collette Treen offers a client-centred approach that focuses on the person, not the problem. She aims to create a calm and accepting space where people can speak freely and be heard. Collette's style is warm and down-to-earth, with simple practical support for everyday struggles.
Collette has five years' experience working in organisations and in independent practice across the United Kingdom. She has helped people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and relationship difficulties.
Background and approach
Her focus also includes issues such as grief, trauma and compassion fatigue, as well as concerns around sexuality and LGBT matters. In sessions she works in a non-judgemental way. That means listening closely, reflecting what is said and helping people make sense of their feelings.
The aim is to help people find their own solutions and to build confidence in coping with life changes. Collette also supports people dealing with abandonment, attachment and communication problems. She can work with feelings of emptiness, guilt and shame, and with challenges like workplace strain or young adult issues.
She offers a steady presence while you talk things through. People who come to her can expect practical conversation and emotional support rather than a lecture. Collette sees taking the first step as an act of courage and aims to accompany clients through the process of change.

How Collette works online
The aim of this approach is to place the client's experience at the centre of therapy. A therapist using this model reflects what you say, asks gentle questions and helps you find your own answers rather than telling you what to do. This style suits people who want collaborative, person-led work.
Finding the right approach is part of the journey. The therapist will work with you to decide if a client-centred style meets your needs and to adapt how sessions run to match your goals and preferences. That conversation happens together, so you can shape the focus and pace.
Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around work or family commitments and avoiding travel time. Online work can make it easier to keep regular appointments and to have shorter check-ins when needed. Please confirm the current session options before booking so you know which formats are available.
