About Stephanie
Stephanie Boosey is a counsellor who offers calm, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed. She meets people where they are and helps them identify and work through what’s causing distress. Her approach is steady and compassionate, suited to someone who wants straightforward help rather than lots of jargon.
Stephanie uses a range of established methods to help people cope with current difficulties. She draws on attachment approaches, cognitive behavioural techniques, EMDR, and mindfulness exercises to help process painful memories, reduce anxiety, and change unhelpful thought patterns.
Background and approach
Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person's needs. She brings six years of contemporary clinical experience and holds NCPS. That experience is combined with earlier work in adult and young-person support, giving her a broad view of common life challenges.
She aims to create an atmosphere of genuine respect and curiosity in sessions. Clients commonly bring worries about anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, loss and bereavement, low self-esteem, addiction, parenting stress, and relationship or intimacy-related issues. Stephanie also supports people dealing with anger, career strain, chronic health problems, and identity-related concerns such as LGBT matters.
Her sessions mix talking and practical exercises. People learn breathing and mindfulness strategies, thought-challenging techniques from CBT, and when appropriate EMDR elements to process traumatic memories. The work is focused on helping people feel steadier and more able to cope day to day.

How therapeutic approaches work online
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on the ways early relationships shape how people relate now. In therapy this can mean noticing patterns in close relationships and building new ways of feeling safe and understood. It often helps when relationship worries or parenting stress are central concerns.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses structured exercises and practical tools to challenge unhelpful thinking and build healthier routines, which can reduce anxiety and low mood over time.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client will decide together which methods to try based on current goals, past experiences and what feels most comfortable. That collaborative process allows approaches to be blended as needed rather than sticking to a single method.
Online therapy makes it easier to fit sessions into busy lives. Video calls let people work face to face from different locations, phone sessions offer a useful option when lower bandwidth or no camera is needed, and live chat or text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing. These formats provide flexibility so therapy can continue around work, family, or other commitments.
