She holds BACP accreditation, and she offers calm, practical support for people dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and major life changes.

How Stephanie’s approaches can work online

Many of the techniques she uses are evidence-based and focus on clear, practical support. One common approach helps people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and replace them with more balanced thoughts; this can lower anxiety and improve mood by changing everyday reactions. Another useful method focuses on grief and loss, offering space to talk through difficult feelings and develop routines that help with daily functioning and remembrance.

Finding the best fit is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss different ways of working and try approaches that suit the person’s goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process, and plans are adjusted as progress is made.

If you are considering online sessions, check which formats the counsellor currently offers before booking. Many people find remote work helps fit therapy into a busy week, for example making it easier to join a session during a lunch break or when travel is difficult. Online sessions can also allow shorter check-ins between in-depth work, and they let people access support from where they are based without needing to travel.
