Martha Cheesman, BACP

Martha Cheesman is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with ten years working in a more specialised capacity. She supports people facing anger, stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, and a wide range of related issues including addiction, grief and self-esteem. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish, and she accepts international clients.

Her approach draws on several familiar methods to match what a person needs in the moment. She uses Attachment-Based principles to look at how past bonds affect present reactions. Client-Centred work keeps the client's experience central, while Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps spot and change unhelpful patterns. She also brings elements of existential thinking when people are questioning purpose or meaning.

Martha describes work that addresses mind, body and spirit together. That means conversations about feelings alongside practical techniques such as mindfulness and trauma-aware practices. She pays attention to how patterns of relating show up in daily life, and supports people who want clearer boundaries or gentler emotional responses.

Her background includes long-term practice with diverse ages and cultures. Over the past decade she has focused on more specialised counselling roles and further study across different approaches. This range gives her several ways to approach anger and the problems connected to it.

People often come for help with workplace frustration, simmering resentment, trouble sleeping linked to stress, or intense reactions after traumatic events. Sessions aim to identify triggers, develop new responses, and build steadier ways of coping in everyday situations.
