Stephanie Cartwright, BACP

Stephanie Cartwright is a counsellor in the United Kingdom who combines practical therapy with a focus on getting results. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief and relationship difficulties. Her aim is to help people make clear, manageable changes they can keep using day to day.

She draws on person-centred therapy, cognitive behavioural strategies and solution-focused techniques. Sessions are shaped around what matters most to the individual and set short, achievable priorities between meetings. Clients often leave with simple tools to use at home so progress can continue outside the session.

Stephanie has eight years of practice experience and has worked with people from many backgrounds. That experience includes supporting people in a hospice setting, and helping carers and those facing end-of-life choices to cope with grief and change.

Her approach treats a person’s mental, emotional, spiritual and physical wellbeing as connected. This means talking about thoughts and behaviours alongside practical steps like small daily habits and coping strategies.

She also spends time on common life challenges such as midlife transitions, career shifts, parenting strains and feelings of isolation or emptiness. Stephanie supports those dealing with ageing and geriatric issues as one of several focus areas in her work.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Client-centred therapy places your experience at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens without judgement, helps you identify what matters most, and follows your pace to build confidence and clarity. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at how thoughts and behaviours affect mood and routines; it uses clear exercises and actions to shift patterns and ease anxiety or low mood.

Choosing the right method is part of the process. The counsellor will work collaboratively to decide which approach or combination fits your goals and preferences. That may mean trying a few practical techniques and reviewing what helps most over a few sessions.

Confirm the exact session options before you book, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also support steady practice of therapeutic tasks between meetings, helping day-to-day progress and integration of new habits into ordinary life.
