About Åse
Åse Greenacre is a BACP-registered counsellor with 16 years of professional experience in the UK. She has worked in NHS settings and in private practice, and she supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression and anger. She also helps with parenting concerns, low self-esteem, relationship and family issues, and life changes.
She grew up in Sweden and has lived in several countries, including many years in Zurich before settling in the UK. That background shapes a practical, straightforward style. Åse treats clients as the experts on their own stories and listens for strengths to build on.
In sessions she focuses on talking through what is happening now and finding useful ways to manage strong emotions. She encourages small, achievable steps so people can test what helps. Conversations cover coping strategies, communication patterns and ways to reduce constant tension.
Åse also works with grief, trauma and issues around intimacy, sleep and eating. She may discuss problems linked to work, career direction, ADHD, burnout and compassion fatigue. The emphasis is on realistic changes rather than quick fixes.
Sessions are offered in English, German and Swedish. Practicalities such as how to start, session format and cost are covered through the provider's booking flow. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.
How sessions work
Approaches that help with strong emotions and anger
Åse uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional regulation. One approach often used helps people notice triggers and bodily signs of anger, then practise short tools to reduce escalation and respond more calmly. This kind of work suits problems where fast reactions create conflict at home or work.Another strand concentrates on communication and relationship patterns. It looks at how habits of speaking and listening can increase tension, and it encourages small, testable changes to how people express needs and set boundaries. That work helps with resentment, repeated arguments and frustrations that build up over time.
Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and will try different techniques together to see what fits. This is a collaborative process rather than a one-size-fits-all prescription.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt activities so the work connects with everyday life and responsibilities.
