Patricia (Trish) Igoe
Compassionate counsellor for stress and relationships
About Patricia
Patricia (Trish) Igoe helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship concerns, low self esteem and career worries. She works with issues like abandonment, attachment difficulties, infidelity, loneliness and problems with communication. Trish is based in the United Kingdom and speaks English.
Trish uses a blend of approaches to match what each person needs. She draws on Attachment-Based work to look at relationship patterns, Client-Centred methods to keep sessions person-focused, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to tackle unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.
Background and approach
She also uses elements of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy when they fit the situation. Sessions are practical and straightforward. Trish aims to make a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about difficult feelings.
Conversations focus on clear goals and small steps that make life easier day to day. Her background includes ten years of professional experience and membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, shown as BACP. That experience includes supporting people through addiction, cancer-related concerns, issues of control and codependency, and feelings of guilt or shame.
When someone first reaches out, Trish will work with them to set priorities and choose approaches that suit their needs. The process aims to build coping skills, improve communication, and reduce overwhelming emotions so people can move forward with more confidence.

How therapeutic approaches work online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current feelings and behaviour. Online sessions can help people notice recurring patterns and try new ways of relating in day-to-day life.Client-Centred Therapy keeps the person at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens without judgement and follows the client's priorities so people feel heard and understood while they work through hard topics.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses practical exercises and small changes that can reduce anxiety, break addictive habits or improve mood.
Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try methods that fit those needs. That collaborative plan can be adjusted as progress is made.
Online formats offer flexibility for busy lives. Video calls let people see facial cues and work in a familiar setting. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat or text-based messaging suits brief check-ins, notes between sessions or people who express themselves better in writing.
All these options allow the therapist to deliver consistent care while fitting around work, family or travel, making it easier to keep therapy progressing.
