About Bethan
Bethan Heap is a psychotherapist who helps people manage stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship patterns and the strain of life changes. She meets clients where they are and focuses on what feels hard to say. Her approach is warm, down-to-earth and collaborative.
Bethan slows things down so emotions and body sensations can be noticed. She listens with real curiosity rather than giving quick answers. If words feel difficult, she sometimes uses simple expressive tools such as metaphor or drawing to make feelings easier to approach.
Background and approach
Her work draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy, attachment ideas and person-centred practice. She also brings somatic awareness and parts‑based thinking to help reconnect with quiet or hidden parts of the self. Sessions are shaped around each person rather than a fixed protocol.
People come to Bethan when they feel stuck between who they have to be and who they want to become. Common themes include identity wobbles, overwhelm, numbness, low self‑esteem and repeating relationship patterns. She pays attention to small shifts and practical ways to make life feel less heavy.
Bethan holds a Masters degree in Psychotherapy and Counselling with Contemporary Creative Approaches and a BSc in Psychology. She is registered as a psychotherapist with NCPS. Her clinical experience spans three years working with relational and emotional concerns.
Sessions aim to be grounded, honest and gently curious. Bethan works side by side with clients to recognise different parts of themselves and help those parts begin to work together rather than pull in opposing directions.

Online support
How emotion-focused and attachment work translate online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and working with core emotions to change unhelpful patterns. It helps when people feel stuck in cycles of overwhelm, disconnection or repeated relationship patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds affect current ways of relating and can help when people struggle with abandonment, trust or closeness.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Bethan treats method as flexible and will collaborate with each person to agree what feels most helpful. Together they discuss goals, try different ways of working and adapt methods as needs change.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to suit different needs. Video calls work well for face-to-face conversation and seeing non‑verbal cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be useful for brief check‑ins. Live chat or messaging can help keep continuity between sessions or suit people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments.
