About Frederick
Frederick Roberts is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who works with adults and young adults. He supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship concerns, and also helps those managing grief, trauma, self-esteem and ADHD. Frederick also accepts international clients and speaks English, Spanish and French.
He keeps sessions warm and interactive. Frederick aims to build a respectful space where people can talk honestly about what is hard for them. He focuses on helping clients notice patterns, try small changes and find practical ways to cope day to day.
His background spans nine years of professional work in mental health and he is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That experience has included supporting people after abuse or physical trauma and helping with issues such as addiction, sleeping problems and parenting stress.
Frederick mixes different therapeutic ways of working to fit each person. He draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to spot unhelpful thinking, and attachment ideas to look at how past relationships shape current ones. Sessions are shaped around the person rather than a fixed programme.
He encourages a gradual approach to change and focuses on realistic steps people can use between meetings. If someone wants to start, they are asked to complete a short questionnaire and then arrange appointments that fit their schedule. Frederick describes the early work as collaborative and practical, with an emphasis on what the client wants to achieve.

How his approaches work for online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, ACT, helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then take values-based steps that matter. It can be useful for anxiety, depression and life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thought patterns and trying small behavioural changes to ease symptoms like worry or sleep problems. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current patterns and relationships, which can help with trust, communication and relationship worries.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Frederick treats this as a collaborative process and will discuss which methods seem most helpful for a person’s goals. He adapts what happens in sessions based on what the client prefers and what is actually helping them week to week.
The original profile does not state which online session formats are used, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time, allowing sessions during a lunch break, or making shorter check-ins possible when needed. Many people find the flexibility helps keep progress steady while managing everyday commitments.
