About Stephanie

Stephanie Cartwright is a counsellor in the United Kingdom who uses a person-centred approach to help people make practical change. She combines client-centred ideas with cognitive behavioural and solution-focused work to keep sessions directed and useful. Her practice aims for clear, achievable steps so people feel more in control between meetings.

She has eight years of experience and has worked with a wide range of people, including professionals, stay-at-home parents and students.

Background and approach

Common issues she helps with include stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, grief and problems with self-esteem. She also supports people facing life changes such as separation, career shifts or caring responsibilities. Her work in a hospice setting informs how she approaches bereavement and end-of-life matters, and she has experience supporting carers as they adjust to changing roles.

That background also shapes how she talks about grief and loss in practical terms rather than only in theory. Sessions focus on the client’s priorities and on small tasks that can be tried between meetings. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used to look at thoughts and behaviours, while solution-focused steps help identify what works now.

The client-centred stance keeps the person’s experience central. Stephanie views wellbeing as an integrated mix of mental, emotional, spiritual and physical factors. People who want clear, goal-oriented counselling that still honours their individual story often find this approach helpful.

How her approaches translate to online counselling

Client-centred work focuses on listening and understanding each person’s experience, and online sessions keep that at the heart of the work. This approach helps when someone needs a non-judgemental space to talk about grief, relationship worries or low self-esteem.

Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses simple experiments to change unhelpful patterns. It suits issues such as anxiety, depression and stress because tasks and thought records can be completed between sessions and discussed online.

Solution-focused therapy concentrates on small, practical steps that build momentum. In online work this often means setting short goals or exercises to try before the next meeting so progress is visible and measurable.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify which methods suit a person’s needs, goals and preferences, and will adjust the plan as therapy progresses.

Online counselling offers flexibility. Video calls allow a live face-to-face feel, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a work break, and live chat or text-based messaging work well for brief check-ins or when writing feels easier. These options help people make counselling part of a busy life.
