About Faye

Faye Noyland is a counsellor who draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and EMDR to help people facing stress, anxiety and eating concerns. She holds BACP registration and has three years of professional experience supporting people through low mood, relationship strain and life changes. Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth.

Faye aims to make sessions a place where thoughts and feelings can be talked about without judgement. She invites people to take an active role in shaping therapy and sets goals together. Sessions focus on practical steps as well as understanding patterns that cause distress.

Her pluralistic approach means she adapts methods to each person rather than following one strict plan. That can mean using acceptance and values-based work alongside practical cognitive tools, or drawing on EMDR for trauma-related material when appropriate. The emphasis is on what works for the individual.

Faye has supported people with a wide range of concerns including grief, addiction, body image and sleeping problems, and she also works with those managing long-term health conditions and cancer-related issues. She listens for the specific challenges beneath presenting problems and helps people build manageable routines and coping strategies.

She encourages a respectful, patient pace so people feel able to try things between sessions. If someone is ready to make changes, she aims to support and empower them through steady steps and practical conversation.

How ACT, CBT and EMDR can help online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice their thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and motivation issues by building practical steps towards what matters.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together and offers straightforward techniques to reduce unhelpful patterns. It is often used for stress, sleep problems and mood management.

Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an approach used when traumatic memories cause ongoing distress; it involves structured processing to reduce the emotional charge of those memories. It can be helpful for trauma and abuse related difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and try methods that fit the person's needs, adapting as progress is made. This collaborative way helps people feel involved in decisions about care.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm which session formats are offered before booking. Many people find online sessions fit around work and family life and can reduce travel time. Others appreciate shorter check-ins or audio-only calls when that better suits their day. Registered or accredited professionals can make online work practical and goal-focused, helping to carry progress into everyday life.
