About Stella
Stella Scrivens is a person-centred counsellor registered in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She helps people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anger, anxiety, grief, addiction and other life pressures. Stella works with clients who want clearer thinking, steadier reactions, and better ways of coping when things get tough.
She keeps sessions straightforward and respectful. Conversations focus on what the person brings in and on practical ways to manage strong feelings. Stella does not diagnose or direct; she listens, reflects, and supports people as they make decisions about next steps.
Her practice draws on client-centred principles that place the person’s experience at the centre of work. She also uses hypnotherapy techniques to address specific problems such as phobias and habits. Trauma-focused methods are part of her approach for people affected by past harm.
In sessions, Stella uses everyday language and tries to make emotional material easier to talk about. She describes some trauma work as offering closure without needing to disclose every detail. The focus is on reducing distress and building coping skills that can be used in daily life.
People who choose to work with her often want practical tools as well as time to think through feelings. Stella accepts international clients and runs sessions in English. To start, readers are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and book an initial appointment.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Stella combines client-centred work with clinical hypnotherapy and trauma-focused techniques. Client-centred therapy means listening closely to what matters to the person and using that to guide sessions. It helps people talk through feelings and find practical ways to change how they react. Clinical hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation and focussed attention to address specific problems such as phobias, unwanted habits and anxiety. Trauma-focused work aims to reduce the hold of past events and teach coping strategies for strong emotions.Deciding which approach to use is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels manageable. That conversation helps choose whether to lean more on listening, hypnotherapy exercises or trauma-focused techniques in future sessions.
The practical benefits of remote sessions include fitting therapy around work and family commitments, shorter check-ins when time is limited, and options that do not require travel. Confirm the available session formats before booking so they match your needs. Registered or accredited professionals can then agree a plan that fits into everyday life and the pace you want to take.
