About me and my therapy practice
Hi, I'm Stella and I offer private online counselling and telephone counselling to adult individuals. I can help with a variety of issues, including identity, anxiety, depression, loss and bereavement, life changes, relationship issues, work related stress, low self-esteem, sexuality, bullying, abuse, trauma and more.
I am particularly passionate about supporting people who are struggling with their identity. I can support you if you feel lost and are looking to get back to who you are, or if you are lacking self-confidence or self-esteem. If you are just figuring out who you are or if you are going through life changes which impact your identity or the way you see yourself, these are things which we can explore together in counselling. If you are mixed race, neurodivergent, queer, or feel “other” for any reason, you deserve to feel accepted, confident and empowered, and you are welcome in this space. While I cannot diagnose anyone such as with autism or ADHD, we can explore your experiences together and figure out what this means for you. I work in a way that validates your experiences, encourages you and promotes confidence.
Practice description
My goal is to support you as you explore your identity and life challenges in an inclusive and accepting environment. I work in a patient, accepting, non-judgemental way to support you through the issues that you wish to address in therapy. I am all about empowering clients to find what works for them and I believe that you have the answers already. My approach is calm and gentle and I will not push you to explore things you are uncomfortable with or not ready for. We will always work at a pace that feels reasonable to you.The counselling sessions are open-ended and usually occur weekly. However, please let me know if you would prefer biweekly or monthly sessions and we can discuss this.
My first session
All sessions including the first session are £50 and are a duration of 50 minutes. However, I offer a free 20 minute introductory phone call upon request for us to see if we are a good fit and how we can work together.
In the introductory call, I will ask you a few questions and you will have a chance to ask me questions as well. I will then send you a copy of the contract and intake form and you can decide if you would be interested in going ahead with sessions.
Please email me with any enquiries or questions. I look forward to speaking with you.
