Therapeutic approaches and online counselling options
Stephen draws on client-centred work that places the person's experience at the heart of therapy, offering empathic listening and support to help clients find their own solutions to stress, relationship issues and emotional pain. Mindfulness-based techniques are used to help people develop present-moment awareness, manage anxiety and reduce reactivity by building simple breathing and attention practices. Psychodynamic work explores how earlier relationships and unconscious patterns influence current behaviour and emotions, which can be helpful for long-standing difficulties such as attachment issues, grief and recurring relationship problems.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Stephen works collaboratively with each client to determine what fits best with their needs, goals and personal preferences. He tailors methods as therapy progresses, blending approaches where appropriate to support change.
Online therapy with Stephen is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access registered professionals from various locations and allow ongoing work to continue in a way that suits the client's life and commitments.
