About Aaron
Counsellor and BACP member Aaron Squire has three years' experience and works with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, self esteem, depression and addictions, among other concerns. He also lists LGBT issues, family and parenting matters, grief, intimacy-related problems, anger, career concerns, ADHD and coping with life changes. Sessions are offered in English in the United Kingdom.
Aaron describes a direct, practical style. He listens, asks focused questions and helps people make sense of their situation. He uses client-centred techniques alongside cognitive behavioural, mindfulness, narrative and psychodynamic approaches. That means sessions can include exploring personal stories, noticing thought patterns, practising grounding or working through past experiences.
People can expect straightforward discussion and collaborative planning rather than long theoretical explanations. Aaron aims to help clients identify small, manageable steps and notice what changes over time. He also works through complex issues such as attachment difficulties, abandonment fears and communication problems.
He lists additional focus areas that include chronic pain, caregiver stress, body image, commitment and control issues, domestic violence, divorce and blended family problems. Those topics are brought into sessions as they relate to the person in front of him.
Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. For practical next steps, the site asks prospective clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.
How his approaches are used in online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy puts the person's experience at the centre. The counsellor listens closely and follows what matters most to the client, helping them clarify feelings and priorities. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and coping strategies by identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing alternatives. Mindfulness Therapy involves short exercises to notice the present moment and reduce reactivity, which many people find helpful for stress and rumination.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Aaron will discuss options and adjust methods based on the client's needs, goals and preferences. The decision is made together so sessions can focus on what the person wants to change or understand.
The site asks prospective clients to confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, since formats are not specified in the biography. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Confirm the precise format and any practical details through the matching questionnaire before scheduling.
