About Steven
Steven Manfredi trained as a counsellor after experiencing the benefit of therapy himself. He works in the United Kingdom and brings four years of clinical experience to his practice. Steven uses a person-centred way of working that puts the client at the heart of conversations.
He aims to offer a respectful, non-judgemental space where people can talk about difficult feelings and find practical ways forward. Steven helps people with common problems such as stress, anxiety, panic, low mood and grief.
Background and approach
He also supports those facing relationship strain, career pressures and life changes. His practice includes work with intimacy-related concerns, anger, self-esteem and LGBT issues, and he can discuss neurodiversity-related topics such as autism and ADHD. He combines client-centred listening with mindfulness techniques and solution-focused conversations.
That mix lets sessions be about what matters to the client, while also trying short, practical steps between meetings. Sessions can help build confidence, self-belief and emotional resilience. Steven describes his approach as sensitive and compassionate.
He adapts the pace and focus to each person’s needs and priorities. People who prefer clear, gentle guidance alongside space to reflect often find this style helpful. Sessions are offered in English and take place online by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.
Fees vary with location and a subscription model is used that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, use the Start Therapy button, complete the short matching questionnaire, then schedule according to availability.

Approaches and online support that fit your life
Steven combines a client-centred way of working with mindfulness and solution-focused ideas to support people online. Client-Centred Therapy means the conversation centres on the person's own goals and experiences, with the counsellor offering listening and empathy to help people make sense of how they feel. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and manage stress and anxiety. Solution-Focused Therapy looks at what is already working and encourages small, practical steps to move toward clearer goals.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Steven will discuss options with each person and decide together which methods suit their needs, aims and preferences. That collaborative process means the focus can shift over time if different support is needed.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different circumstances. Video calls let people use visual cues for a fuller conversation. Phone sessions work well when a lighter technology set-up is needed or on a shorter break. Live chat and text messaging are useful for those who prefer typed communication or want shorter, flexible check-ins. These formats aim to make therapy more accessible and easier to fit around work, family and daily life.
