About Wellington
Wellington Cesar Assis Bueno works from an emotionally focused perspective and blends several approaches to suit each person's needs. He uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside acceptance, attachment and client-centred ideas to help people better understand their feelings. Wellington writes simply and listens carefully to what matters to each person.
He trained in therapeutic counselling and holds a Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling awarded by the Counselling and Psychotherapy Central Awarding Body, earned in 2015.
Background and approach
He is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which guides his practice and professional standards. He has recorded more than 3,000 hours of client work and brings nine years of experience to his counselling. Wellington draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people name and sit with strong emotions.
He uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to clarify values and build small, practical steps. Attachment-based thinking helps unpack long-standing patterns that show up in relationships and day-to-day life. Sessions are shaped around what each person needs, so approaches are blended rather than fixed.
He explains things plainly, sets clear goals with the client, and moves at a pace the client chooses. The aim is to relieve distress efficiently while building tools for longer-term change. Wellington speaks English and Portuguese, and he works with people in the United Kingdom.
He has experience in NHS settings, addiction services and independent practice, and he also undertakes clinical supervision to support other therapists.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches shape online work
Wellington commonly uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people identify and process strong emotions. EFT focuses on recognising emotional patterns and allowing feelings to be experienced fully so they lose their grip on behaviour and decisions.He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, value-driven actions despite difficult thoughts or feelings. Attachment-based ideas are used to reveal repeating patterns from earlier relationships and to develop new ways of relating to oneself and others.
Choosing a method is a collaborative process. He will discuss what you want to change and which approaches suit your goals and preferences. That conversation helps shape a plan and the pace of work so the approach fits your needs rather than the other way around.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging for flexibility. Video calls work well for conversational depth and non-verbal cues. Phone sessions can be a good choice when bandwidth is limited or when you prefer not to be on camera. Chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, reflecting between sessions or when you need more frequent, short contact. These options make it easier to fit counselling around work, family and travel commitments while keeping the focus on progress.
