About me and my therapy practice
Hello, my name is Irène Stone
I am a highly experienced counsellor/supervisor with over twenty years of practice. I gained my bachelor’s degree in person centred counselling, at the Metanoia Institute, London and I am an accredited member of the BACP (reg.no. 20329) and adhere to their professional standards of conduct.
It is my belief that looking after our Mental Health is one of the most important aspects of living a happy and successful life. And so, over the past two decades I have supported my clients to develop healthier ways of managing difficulties and putting their mental health first.
Individual Work: At Counselling for Change and Wellbeing I discuss your difficulties in dept to find the underlying issue and help you to gain a greater understanding of what might have caused the problem in the first place. This insight will help us to look for new ways of managing problems more effectively. We will work together at a pace that suits you to support any positive change to be lasting.
Couples Work: Besides working in my private practice with individuals I also work with couples in co-operation with my husband who is himself a highly experienced coach and cognitive hypnotherapist. You can read more about the work we do with couples by visiting my website or contact me for a free chat.
Additional Experience: Besides working with client in private practice I have also worked as a core counsellor and supervisor for the counselling department at the Brunel University London (2009 and 2023) where I worked individually with students and staff members in a highly stressful and demanding environment to support their resilience and overall mental wellbeing.
Contact me for a free phone consultation: I would be very happy to start our work together with a free phone consultation where you can let me know your reasons for calling, your expectations of working with me and ask any questions you might have about how I work.

Practice description
"I specialise in supporting my clients to manage their anxiety, stress and depression better and so make positive and lasting changes in their lives."
Sometimes we find ourselves in stressful situations, at work or at home, that feel too difficult to handle alone. I focus on increasing awareness and understanding of patterns that are keeping you feeling stuck and offer the opportunity to address these problems in a direct, effective, and supportive manner. The goal is to bring forth your best self in order to create a more genuine and passionate life.
My first session
Free 20min. phone consultation
The first thing I would recommend would be a brief phone conversation.
This will give you the opportunity to discuss your issue and ask me any questions you might have about counselling and how I work as a practitioner. To arrange this you can either contact me via phone 07714 096400 or send me an e-mail to info@irene-stone.com
1st session
Once we have agreed to make a start either via phone or online appointment, we can use this first session to discuss in more detail what brings you to counselling and what you would like to get out of our work together.
You are very welcome to ask me any questions you might and I will do my best to reply with openness and transparency.
It is important to feel comfortable and this first meeting can help you to ascertain whether working with me would be a positive step forward for you.

About me and my therapy practice
Welcome to my profile!
Choosing the right supervisor is a key step in achieving ethically sound support for your clinical practice, so I’ve done my best to provide you with what I hope will help you decide if I’m the right person for you. I am a BACP Accredited & Registered Counsellor and Certified Integrative Supervisor.
How I work
I believe that supervision can offer a safe space for you to explore and reflect on issues that arise from your work as a therapist. Supportive supervision is essential to be working ethically sound and enables you to gain insights regarding your growing edges for the benefit of both, you and your clients.

In my capacity as a core member of the Brunel University Wellbeing department I also supervise trainee and associate counsellors of the counselling team.
