About Scott Mottram
Scott Mottram is a BACP-accredited counsellor who works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and life transitions. He recognises how overwhelming periods of persistent worry, low mood or lingering effects of past experiences can feel, and approaches each person with empathy and respect rather than judgement. Scott describes his practice as integrative, meaning he draws on a range of evidence-informed methods and tailors interventions to the changing needs of each client.
He offers a listening space where personal stories - both past and present - are attended to so that patterns and obstacles can be gently explored. Where helpful, Scott introduces practical tools from established therapeutic approaches to support clearer thinking, improved coping and gradual change. Over time many clients report experiencing relief, greater clarity and the confidence to make meaningful adjustments in their lives.
Scott works with a broad set of issues including trauma and abuse, addictions, family and parenting difficulties, grief, sleep problems, relationship and attachment concerns, anger, low self-esteem and neurodiverse presentations such as ADHD. He also supports people through career questions and coaching-style work when appropriate. As part of his practice he offers a free, no-obligation 20-minute telephone consultation to answer questions and explore whether working together would be a good fit.

Therapeutic Approaches and the Benefits of Online Work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, and focuses on clarifying personal values so actions align with what matters. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and getting unstuck from unhelpful patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early and existing relational patterns shape current interactions and emotional responses, helping people repair connection, understand attachment needs and improve relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Scott collaborates with each person to identify which methods feel most useful given their goals, preferences and life circumstances, and adapts the approach as progress unfolds. This collaborative stance helps ensure the work stays relevant and practical.
Online therapy offers a flexible way to access licensed professionals and therapists, with sessions available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments, maintain continuity during relocations or busy periods, and choose the format that feels safest and most convenient for the individual.
