Sunshine Goodfellow , BACP

Sunshine Goodfellow is a United Kingdom-based therapist with 13 years of professional experience supporting individuals, couples, and families through challenging life moments. She offers a warm, steady presence for people working through trauma, relationship conflict, family difficulties, eating and addiction concerns, mood disorders, and a wide range of stressors that affect daily life. Sunshine draws on a blend of therapeutic traditions to help clients reconnect with inner resources, build coping practices, and move toward greater balance and vitality.

Describing her practice as rooted in respect for each person’s expertise in their own life, she works collaboratively to help clients access their inner wisdom and clarify what matters most. She practices from a framework informed by Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered approaches, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, among other influences, and integrates art and play therapy techniques when helpful for exploration and expression. Sunshine is registered with the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which reflects adherence to a recognised professional framework for practice.

Her training includes study at Anglia Ruskin University and postgraduate work in Art and Play Therapy at the University of Cambridge, and her community roles as a school governor and youth leader reflect a long-term commitment to promoting mental wellbeing across ages. Motivated by a belief in the power of hope, she invites clients to begin a process of gentle self-discovery and practical change, walking alongside them as they rebuild connection with themselves and others.

Approach-Focused Online Therapy with a Range of Methods

Sunshine commonly uses Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to guide online work. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns influence current connections and helps people build more secure ways of relating. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, acceptance, and the client’s own capacity for growth, making space for people to find their own solutions. CBT offers practical tools to identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and to develop new strategies for managing symptoms and improving daily functioning.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Sunshine works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits their needs, goals, and preferences. She and the client review progress and adjust methods over time so the work stays relevant and effective.

Online therapy with Sunshine is available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals and therapists from varied locations, support continuity of care during life transitions, and allow clients to receive support in ways that suit their daily routines.
