Estar Wells
Calm, practical counselling for real-life problems
About Estar
Estar Wells works from a person-centred foundation and blends practical therapy with a warm, down-to-earth manner. She offers clear listening and simple tools to help people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and life transitions. Estar keeps sessions straightforward and focused on what matters now for each person.
She draws on approaches such as attachment-based work and cognitive behavioural ideas to help with relationship challenges, grief, trauma and coping with change.
Background and approach
That mix means sessions can be reflective or more structured, depending on what a person needs. Estar also supports those facing issues around addiction, intimacy, eating and sleeping difficulties, and compassion fatigue. With seven years of professional experience, Estar brings practical experience rather than jargon.
She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and with the National Counselling Society, NCPS. These credentials reflect her ongoing involvement in professional standards and practice. People who come to Estar often want help making decisions, working through loss, or improving communication and connection.
She uses straightforward conversation to uncover patterns, try small changes, and build coping strategies. Sessions are tailored so short-term goals can be set where they make sense. Estar works with individual concerns across a broad range of topics including relationship difficulties, family-related stress, parenting strain, career questions and ageing issues.
She also focuses on attachment problems, abandonment themes and codependency when these show up in people’s lives.

How Estar adapts therapy for online sessions
Estar often combines attachment-based ideas and cognitive behavioural techniques in her online work. Attachment-based therapy looks at how early bonds shape current relationships and helps people notice patterns in how they connect and react. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavioural changes to reduce anxiety or low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Estar will work collaboratively to choose methods that match a person's goals and preferences. Together they will try different ways of working and agree on what feels most helpful as therapy progresses.
Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different circumstances. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can work with low bandwidth, and text or chat can fit short check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel while keeping continuity of care.
