About Stella

Stella Anderson is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief and low self esteem. She offers straightforward support for depression, sleep problems, anger and the strain of big life changes. Stella also helps with addictions, relationship and family concerns, parenting pressures, career doubts and trauma.

She mentions multicultural issues as an additional focus and works with individuals who want a respectful, listening space. Stella uses a warm, person-centred way of talking that aims to make people feel heard.

Background and approach

She draws on psychodynamic ideas to help clients understand patterns from the past. Cognitive behavioural tools are used when practical ideas or changes to thoughts and actions can help reduce distress. Her practice is collaborative.

Stella works with each person to build a simple, individual plan. Sessions usually combine gentle reflection with steps to try between meetings. The aim is clearer thinking, more manageable emotions and steadier day-to-day coping.

Stella trained and holds BACP registration, and she brings five years of experience to her counselling work. She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients who can join online. People choosing Stella can expect calm listening and a focus on practical next steps.

She encourages small, realistic changes and helps clients track progress as they work through difficult feelings.

Ways of working Stella names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Working online with person-centred and CBT approaches

Stella uses a person-centred approach that focuses on listening, empathy and helping people feel understood. This approach suits someone who needs a calm, non-judgemental space to talk through feelings and life events.

She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact. That approach offers practical exercises and experiments to reduce anxiety, improve sleep or change unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Stella will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and decide together which methods to try. The process is collaborative and goals are reviewed as you go.

Online sessions give flexibility for people with busy lives or those living further away. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and screen sharing for worksheets, while phone sessions can work better when lower bandwidth is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins, written reflection or when typing feels easier than speaking. Registered or accredited professionals can offer all these formats to fit different schedules and practical needs.
