With six years of experience and the NCPS credential, Stephanie draws on a mix of established methods. She uses client-centred conversation to explore what matters most to each person.
Background and approach
Cognitive behavioural ideas are used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different responses in daily life. She also applies attachment-based thinking to look at how early relationships shape current feelings and patterns. For people carrying traumatic memories, eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing - EMDR - can be part of the work to reduce intense reactions and process painful events.
Sessions focus on clear, practical steps as well as on understanding underlying needs. Clients bring whatever is troubling them and together they build coping strategies, emotional awareness, and small behavioural experiments to try between sessions. Stephanie commonly supports people with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions and relationship and intimacy-related concerns.
She also works with issues such as ADHD, body image, chronic illness, parenting strain and compassion fatigue. Her style is calm, patient and goal-focused, aiming to make therapy useful in everyday life.

How Stephanie's approaches translate to online therapy
Stephanie uses client-centred work to build a compassionate, person-focused relationship online. This approach means the therapist listens closely to each person and shapes sessions around their concerns and goals, helping people feel heard and understood.She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which teaches simple, practical techniques to spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviours. CBT can help with anxiety, low mood and stress by breaking problems into manageable steps and testing small changes between sessions.
EMDR is included when trauma symptoms are a focus; it involves guided memory processing to reduce strong emotional reactions to past events and can be adapted to an online setting when appropriate.
Finding the best approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss these methods with the client, consider what feels right, and tailor the plan to match goals and preferences in a collaborative way.
Online therapy offers flexibility and easier access to regular sessions. Video calls recreate face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits short check-ins and text messaging lets people reflect between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life.
