About Liam

HCPC. BSc (Hons), MSc, PsychD. 11 years' experience. Dr Liam Reilly works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting and family matters, eating and sleeping problems, self-esteem, career matters, bipolar and ADHD.

Dr Reilly describes his counselling as person-centred and collaborative. He aims to create time for people to talk through difficult feelings and to develop practical strategies. Sessions focus on helping clients manage symptoms and make changes that fit their daily life.

He draws on several therapeutic approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT). These methods are used alongside clinical judgement to address issues such as trauma, addiction, mood problems and relationship difficulties.

Dr Reilly is HCPC registered. He has worked in NHS, private, corporate and educational settings and has experience offering training and supervision. He previously represented the British Psychological Society Northern Ireland faculty for Children, Young People and Families.

He accepts international clients and offers support in English. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time; the cost varies by location. To begin, select the See online counselling options button, complete the short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

Therapeutic approaches used in online counselling

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them, and it supports choosing actions that reflect personal values. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress and coping with life changes.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early bonds shape current behaviour. It can help with intimacy issues, abandonment concerns and family-related difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Dr Reilly works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods suit their goals and preferences, and he may combine techniques from different approaches to match the presenting problem.

Practical benefits of online counselling include fitting sessions around work and family commitments and removing travel time. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the precise online options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals often use online sessions to maintain continuity of care and make regular appointments easier to keep.
