Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Stella works from a client-centered perspective, which focuses on creating a non-judgemental space where the client’s own goals and pace guide the work. This approach helps people who need support building self-awareness, exploring identity, and strengthening emotional resilience. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - CBT - is used to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, making it a practical option for issues such as anxiety, low mood, and stress-related problems. Psychodynamic therapy explores how past experiences and relational patterns influence current feelings and reactions, which can be valuable when addressing long-standing difficulties or complex emotional responses.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Stella treats it as a collaborative task. She will work with each client to understand their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapt techniques as the relationship and progress unfold. This collaborative stance helps ensure interventions feel relevant and manageable.
Online therapy offers flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - allowing clients to access help from home or while travelling. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family, or other commitments, while still enabling meaningful, ongoing work with a licensed professional.
