About Aaron

Aaron Squire is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties, trauma and parenting concerns. He uses plain language and practical steps so people can make sense of what they are feeling and begin to move forward. Sessions are direct and non-judgemental, with an emphasis on listening, asking helpful questions and setting clear next steps.

Aaron draws on client-centred work to keep the focus on the person and their priorities.

Background and approach

He also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and try different responses. He may introduce simple mindfulness exercises to reduce overwhelm and bring attention back to the present. His style is straightforward and grounded.

He aims to create a space where people feel heard and understood without unnecessary jargon. Conversations are aimed at practical change rather than abstract theory. Aaron has three years' experience working in mental health and is registered with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.

He practises from the United Kingdom and carries out sessions in English. People often seek him out for issues such as grief, addictions, self-esteem, intimacy-related worries, ADHD, workplace stress and coping with life changes. He also supports those facing family pressures, caregiver stress, chronic illness and communication problems.

If you want clear, steady support to tackle a specific concern, he helps you plan the next steps and check progress as you go.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Client-centred work keeps the focus on the person and what matters most to them. It involves open listening and following the client’s lead so goals and priorities shape each session. This approach helps when you are unsure where to start or need someone to help make sense of confusing feelings.

Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behaviour that maintain distress. In sessions the counsellor might help identify unhelpful thoughts, try small behavioural experiments and set clear actions to test new ways of coping. This is useful for anxiety, low mood and many stress-related problems.

Mindfulness techniques are short practices used in session to calm the body and bring attention back to the present. Simple breathing or grounding exercises can reduce overwhelm and are easy to use between meetings when stress spikes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss options and try methods that match your needs, goals and preferences. That process is collaborative and can change over time as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let you see non-verbal cues and hold longer conversations. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a lunch break. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick check-ins, written reflection or shorter sessions when time is tight. These formats make it easier to attend regularly and keep momentum while you work on change.
