About Stephanie
Stephanie Boosey is a counsellor who helps people process what feels overwhelming. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, depression and questions about identity, including LGBT concerns. She aims to listen without judgement and to create a supportive space for people to talk through what matters to them.
Stephanie brings six years of recent practice alongside longer experience in clinical work and education. She uses a person-centred approach and draws on several therapeutic methods to suit each person’s needs.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on understanding feelings, spotting unhelpful patterns, and developing practical ways to cope. Clients can expect a collaborative way of working. Stephanie describes counselling as a shared process where the client’s experience guides the work and the counsellor offers tools, awareness and respectful curiosity.
Techniques may include mindfulness practices, cognitive work to challenge unhelpful thoughts, and approaches that attend to attachment and present-moment experience. Her listed approaches include Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Mindfulness Therapy.
EMDR may be used when trauma and distressing memories are part of the difficulty, while CBT and mindfulness help with everyday worries and mood symptoms. Stephanie holds NCPS as a credential and practises in the United Kingdom.
She accepts international clients and offers support for a broad range of life challenges such as trauma, relationship difficulties, recovery from abuse, addictions, parenting strain and chronic health concerns.

How therapy approaches shape online sessions
Attachment-based work looks at patterns in relationships and early bonds to understand how those patterns affect current feelings and reactions. It helps people who struggle with trust, closeness or intense emotional responses to others. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and creating a non-judgemental space where the client sets the pace; it supports people who need to be heard and to make sense of their experience. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and teaches practical skills to change how someone thinks and behaves in everyday life.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and the problems they bring, and will suggest methods that fit. That decision is made together and can be adjusted as therapy progresses.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which options are available before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer to work from familiar surroundings or who need a quieter setting, and the therapist will discuss practical arrangements and what works best for each person.
