About Moira McCarthy

Moira McCarthy works with 18-year-olds and adults in both one-to-one sessions and group therapy, offering a supportive environment where clients can explore challenges and build resilience. She practices primarily Client-Centered or Person-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Integrative Holistic Therapy, applying these approaches to help people address emotional difficulties and navigate life transitions.

She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and holds the NCPS credential, each reflecting professional training and adherence to recognised standards in counselling and psychotherapy. Those qualifications and the practical skills she has developed have enabled her to lead wellbeing workshops for local authorities and a range of businesses, extending therapeutic support beyond individual sessions.

Moira attends regular professional supervision to maintain the quality of her work and to ensure practice within the ethical framework associated with BACP membership. Her practice emphasizes a warm, therapeutic atmosphere where clients are encouraged to talk openly and to grow in ways that feel positive and manageable.

Many people ask whether remote therapy can make a real difference. For many common concerns - such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or coping with life changes - online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.

One major advantage is flexibility. Individuals can connect with a therapist in the format that suits them best - through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - making it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and varied lifestyles.

Licensed professionals offer these options, and those seeking a different style or approach can change therapists if they prefer. For many people, online therapy provides a practical, accessible path to support and personal growth.
