About Harrison
Harrison Cochrane is an ACA counsellor with five years of professional experience who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief and self-esteem concerns. He also supports those dealing with LGBT issues and life transitions. He aims to offer a respectful and compassionate space where people can take small steps towards change.
Harrison focuses on tailoring conversations and plans to each person’s needs. He listens for what matters most and works together with clients to set practical goals. Sessions aim to be straightforward and focused on real-life changes rather than medical labels.
Over five years he has worked with people managing panic, chronic illness and caregiving stress, as well as issues like attachment, abandonment and isolation. He also helps with body image, money worries, communication problems and feelings of guilt or shame. His background gives him familiarity with a wide range of everyday struggles that affect wellbeing and work-life balance.
Harrison places importance on respect and sensitivity in sessions. He encourages honest conversation about setbacks and progress. The pace and direction of therapy are shaped by each person’s goals and comfort level.
People who choose him can expect collaborative planning, practical steps for coping, and support while making changes. He aims to empower people to find clearer priorities, reduce overwhelm, and build confidence in daily life.
How therapeutic methods translate to online work
Harrison draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and clearer thinking. One common approach helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and practise small, testable changes in daily life; this can reduce anxiety and improve coping. Another approach emphasises building skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance, which is useful for panic, grief and high-stress periods.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Harrison will discuss goals, preferences and how you prefer to work, then recommend methods that fit your needs. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
If you are considering online sessions, check the current session options before booking because specific formats were not listed in the profile. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around work and family commitments, cut travel time, and keep sessions brief when needed. Some people find phone sessions need less bandwidth and feel simpler, while video can help with non-verbal cues during discussion. Confirm which formats are offered so sessions can be organised to suit your routine and goals.
