Online sessions and therapeutic approaches
Stella delivers sessions via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These online formats are used to provide therapeutic conversation and interventions while working remotely. The range of digital options allows for scheduled conversations and ongoing messaging depending on the person's needs.
Her foundational approach is client-centred therapy, which focuses on listening, acceptance, and collaboration. In-session the therapist seeks to accompany the person as they explore their concerns, drawing on the person’s own knowledge of their life. Stella is also trained in clinical hypnotherapy; this is described in her background as a gentle modality used for a variety of concerns such as phobias, fear of flying, and weight management.
For trauma-related work she uses Rewind therapy and trauma-focused techniques. Rewind therapy is presented in her training as a trauma-based method sometimes described as closure without disclosure. Stella integrates mindfulness and psychodynamic ideas where appropriate and discusses the therapeutic pathway with each person to find a collaborative fit.
