More about Stella

  • 3 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

I am registered in the United Kingdom as a person centred counsellor with 3 years of professional experience. I have experience in helping clients with a wide range of issues, from stress, anxiety, trauma, abuse and coping with grief and loss among others. I provide a warm, empathic and non judgemental space where you can feel safe to explore whatever challenges you are facing. I believe in meeting each client with genuine respect and acceptance. At the heart of my approach is the belief that every person is the expert of their own life. My role is not to direct or diagnose but to walk alongside you, offering you support as you navigate your own path. I aim to empower you to make sense of the issues that you are experiencing. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process. I am trained in Rewind therapy which is a trauma based therapy, often described as closure without disclosure. I also use transactional analysis looking at child parent ego states. I am experienced in a wide range of presenting issues. I am also trained in clinical hypnotherapy

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
