About Aaron
Aaron Liam Firth is a counsellor who helps people facing anxiety, depression and relationship strain. He works with those coping with grief, burnout and identity questions. He aims to make therapy straightforward and practical for people who feel stuck or overwhelmed.
Aaron uses somatic ideas alongside talking therapy to help people notice how stress and feelings live in the body. He also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based approaches to help people clarify values and repair important connections.
Background and approach
Sessions are grounded and person-focused rather than full of jargon. With seven years of practice, Aaron brings experience across a wide range of concerns. He supports clients with addiction, trauma and emotional regulation, and he can help with work stress, career change and issues around intimacy.
He pays attention to patterns such as abandonment, attachment wounds and communication problems. Aaron is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. He works with clients in the United Kingdom and with people internationally, offering sessions in English.
His background includes elements of client-centred, psychodynamic and cognitive behavioural work. In sessions he focuses on simple, usable skills as well as understanding the story behind the difficulty. That might mean learning new ways to notice body sensations, practicing new communication habits, or exploring personal values and goals.
He encourages steady, manageable steps rather than sudden fixes.
Approaches that suit online therapy and the body
Aaron combines somatic-informed work with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based ideas to support people online. Somatic-informed work encourages awareness of bodily sensations and how tension or ease shows up in daily life; it can help with anxiety, trauma and emotional overwhelm. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and developing flexible responses to difficult thoughts and feelings, which can help with depression, stress and life changes. Attachment-Based approaches look at patterns in close relationships and help people understand and shift those patterns to improve connection and safety.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to test methods, notice what helps, and adjust based on needs and preferences. Clients often combine body-focused exercises, values work and relationship exploration rather than relying on a single method.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different needs and schedules. These formats make it easier to work around work, family and travel commitments and allow practice of skills in everyday settings. The range of formats also gives options for paced conversations, immediate check-ins or written reflection between sessions, which can support steady progress.
