About Myfanwy
NCPS, 10 years' experience. Myfanwy Bower is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who works with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief and self-esteem problems. She uses person-centred counselling alongside techniques from mindfulness and solution-focused therapy to help people talk through current problems and find practical ways forward.
Myfanwy describes her practice as collaborative. She helps people set goals where appropriate and explores what matters most to them. Sessions are conversational and focus on the client’s experience rather than on labels or diagnoses.
Her approach draws on client-centred principles. That means she listens without judgement and follows the lead of the person in the room. Mindfulness techniques are used to build awareness of thoughts and feelings in the moment. Solution-focused methods support short-term goal setting and identifying small steps that can make a difference.
Over a decade of work has involved helping people with a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, eating difficulties, parenting strain, anger and career stress. Additional focus areas include abandonment, caregiver stress, infidelity and loneliness among others.
Sessions are conducted in English. Myfanwy notes that online counselling can mirror face-to-face work when the practical conditions allow it. Prospective clients are asked to confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not detailed here.
How Myfanwy uses person-centred, mindfulness and solution-focused work online
Client-Centred Therapy involves attentive listening and following the client’s lead to help them make sense of their feelings and choices; it helps with general life stress, relationship concerns and emotional distress.Mindfulness Therapy teaches ways to notice thoughts, sensations and emotions without getting carried away by them; it can support anxiety, rumination and coping with strong feelings.
Solution-Focused Therapy focuses on identifying small, practical steps and achievable goals; it is useful for people seeking clearer next steps or short-term change.
Finding the right mix of approaches is often part of the first few sessions. The counsellor will work collaboratively to decide which methods suit the person’s aims and preferences, and may adjust the balance as therapy proceeds.
Session formats are not specified here, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life - for example by removing travel, allowing shorter check-ins, or making it simpler to schedule sessions around work and childcare. Registered or accredited professionals commonly adapt these approaches so they work well at a distance, and this process will be discussed when arranging the first meeting.
