About Esnas

Esnas Turnbull is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and struggles with self-esteem and motivation. Esnas helps clients who are wondering what comes next after change, and those dealing with career questions or compassion fatigue.

She uses straightforward talking and practical tools in sessions. Esnas draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try small changes. Attachment-Based and Client-Centred ways of working shape how she listens and responds in the room.

Esnas pays attention to broader life events that affect direction and meaning. That includes issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, infidelity, divorce and separation, and family of origin concerns. She also supports people coping with dissociation, guilt and shame, and the emotional impact of migration or disaster.

Sessions aim to make difficult feelings easier to name and manage, and to clarify next steps people can take. Esnas offers practical exercises to practise between meetings, and she reviews what helps and what does not. Her approach is collaborative and focused on concrete changes rather than vague promises.

People who are dealing with end-of-life matters, hospice and bereavement, or complex trauma can also raise those topics. International clients may be supported in English, and Esnas asks new clients to complete a short questionnaire before scheduling a first session.

How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions

Esnas commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based Therapy in her work. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and on choosing actions that reflect what matters to the client. It can help when anxiety or avoidance keeps someone from moving forward. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns that began in early relationships and how they affect current connections and trust; it can help with abandonment, commitment issues and relationship worries.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Esnas will discuss the methods above and others she uses, and will help decide what fits a person’s needs and preferences. That collaborative process means checking in and adapting methods as goals or life circumstances change.

The biography did not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work and family life, allow shorter check-in meetings when needed, and reduce travel time. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often use video or phone sessions to offer that flexibility, and Esnas will explain which formats she offers when arranging the first appointment.
