About Stella
Stella Hendricks is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people struggling with depression, stress and anxiety. She aims to create a warm, non-judgemental space where people can talk honestly about what’s worrying them. Stella works at a steady pace so clients feel able to raise difficult topics when they are ready.
She uses a psychodynamic approach to look at the patterns and life experiences that shape current feelings and relationships.
Background and approach
That can help people see why they react a certain way and make different choices moving forward. Stella also draws on attachment-based ideas to understand how early relationships affect trust and closeness today. Sessions focus on everyday concerns as well as deeper issues like grief, trauma and struggles with self-esteem.
Conversations are practical and reflective, with attention to how thoughts and feelings play out in daily life. People often bring worries about sleep, career stress, eating and intimacy-related issues. Stella holds BACP accreditation, which she uses to guide how she works.
She has five years of professional experience and offers help in English to people in the UK and internationally. Her background suits those who want to understand patterns behind their distress as well as find workable ways to feel better. Therapy sessions can take different forms including video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging.
The aim is to match approach and format to each person’s needs so progress feels manageable and relevant.

Approaches Stella lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
She also applies attachment-based thinking to notice how early bonds affect trust, closeness and emotional safety today. That perspective is useful for relationship worries, intimacy-related issues and difficulties with dependency or avoidance. The focus is on understanding patterns so new choices become possible.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Stella collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. Together they review what helps and adapt the plan as therapy progresses.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit around work or caregiving. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer to write rather than speak. These options make it simpler to keep continuity and adjust the format as needs change.
