About Ebi

Ebi Mensah is an integrative counsellor who works from a person-centred base. She draws on several approaches to help people address anxiety, low mood, stress and relationship problems.

Background and approach

Ebi writes plainly and meets clients with warmth and presence so they can talk through what matters to them. She understands how cultural beliefs and values shape experience.

As a British African, she says this helps her connect with people navigating difference. Sessions focus on listening, reflection and practical steps clients can try between appointments.

Ebi offers one-to-one counselling for people wanting to manage life changes, career shifts or feelings that are holding them back. She also supports those dealing with grief, trauma, anger, or struggles with self-esteem and body image.

Practical topics such as setting boundaries, handling overthinking, and coping with compassion fatigue are part of her work. Her approach blends client-centred listening with ideas from attachment theory, cognitive behavioural techniques and relationship-focused methods such as the Gottman Method and Imago work.

She uses psychoeducation to help people understand patterns and try new ways of relating. Ebi has five years' experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

She has worked with many clients online and offers flexible session times, including some late evening appointments when needed.

Approaches for relationships and personal change online

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and empathy to help people feel heard and to discover their own solutions. It suits people who want a compassionate space to talk through difficult feelings and decisions.

Attachment-based therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It can help people understand attachment issues such as abandonment, avoidance, and difficulties with trust and intimacy, and try new ways of relating in day-to-day life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods collaboratively, and adjust techniques to fit what the client finds helpful. This is a joint process where preferences and practical needs shape the plan.

Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different circumstances. Video lets people read facial cues and hold longer sessions, while phone calls need less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, written reflections or for fitting short therapy moments into a busy day. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to work around work, family and travel commitments.
