About Stephanie
Stephanie Cartwright is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who uses a practical, results-focused style. She draws on Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy to help people who want to make changes in their lives. Her work often focuses on depression, anxiety, grief and relationship concerns.
She speaks plainly in sessions and concentrates on what matters to the client now. Conversations are goal-orientated and centred on the priorities the client brings.
Background and approach
Between sessions clients may be given simple tasks or ideas to try so progress continues outside the room. Stephanie has eight years of experience and has supported people from many backgrounds, including professionals, stay-at-home parents and students. She has worked in a hospice setting and guided people facing terminal or life-limiting diagnosis, and their carers, through bereavement and adjustment.
Her approach treats emotional, mental and physical wellbeing as linked. She helps clients identify thinking or behaviour patterns that keep problems going and then practises alternatives together. The aim is to build confidence and practical skills that make everyday life easier.
Sessions are focused and aim for measurable change over time. Stephanie frames work as a collaboration - she listens, then helps clients find and use their own strengths to move forward.

Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and actions keep problems going. Sessions include practical exercises and strategies to challenge unhelpful thinking and build new habits, which is useful for depression, anxiety and stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client talk about goals and preferences, then choose methods together. That makes the plan practical and tailored rather than fixed from the outset.
Online sessions can be arranged as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video helps preserve face-to-face connection, phone sessions can be quicker check-ins when time is short, and messaging suits ongoing support or low-bandwidth moments. These options make it easier to fit counselling around work, caring responsibilities or travel, while still using the same therapeutic tools and exercises you would use in person.
