Aaron Thorpe, BACP

Aaron Thorpe is a BACP-registered therapist based in the United Kingdom with four years of clinical experience. He emphasises the relational foundations of therapy, working from the belief that every life matters and that healing often begins in the context of a trusting connection. The BACP credential refers to the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and signals professional membership and practice standards.

Aaron aims to offer a warm, nonjudgmental space where people can be genuinely heard and understood. He works with clients facing anxiety, depression, relationship and family difficulties, parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, grief, addictions, issues around intimacy and self-esteem, stress, life transitions, and related concerns. He also supports people with ADHD, attachment and personality-related issues, caregiving stress, codependency, and a wide range of emotional and interpersonal struggles.

His practice draws on a broad integrative toolkit so that work can be tailored to the individual. Approaches he uses include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), Existential Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Somatic Therapy, Trauma-Focused Therapy, and Internal Family Systems. He aims to identify core emotional patterns and make them easier to understand through clear explanations, metaphors, and focused listening.

Sessions are adapted to each person’s pace, values, and goals, with practical tools and reflective work offered where appropriate. He may suggest books, practices, or reflections to support progress between meetings so that learning continues outside session time. Aaron’s priority is to help people build clarity, emotional resilience, and meaningful change in their lives. He is not currently accepting new clients.
