Stephanie Boosey, NCPS

Stephanie Boosey NCPS offers counselling aimed at helping people move forward from the struggles they bring. She writes in a warm, non-judgemental way and aims to help people identify and process their concerns. Sessions are described as collaborative, with the client’s experience at the centre and the counsellor offering respectful curiosity and support.

She uses person-centred practice as a foundation and draws on several approaches to suit the person in front of her. That includes eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing, mindfulness practices and cognitive behavioural ideas. These are used to help with anxiety, low mood, trauma responses, pain and other life difficulties.

Stephanie reports more than 20 years supporting adults and young people, and during that time she has worked with a wide range of life challenges. Her profile lists experience helping with grief, relationship problems, self-esteem, addiction, ADHD, chronic illness and parenting strain among many other issues. Her registration is shown as NCPS.

In sessions she aims to use gentle but effective techniques to build coping strategies. Practical steps and simple exercises are often part of the work alongside conversations about past experience and present difficulties. Clients are encouraged to notice thoughts and feelings and to practise small changes between meetings.

She invites people who are ready to take a first step and says reaching out takes courage. People considering therapy are asked to follow the site’s process to start a conversation and arrange an initial session.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-based work focuses on patterns in close relationships and how earlier connections affect present feelings and reactions. Online sessions using this lens often look at how people relate, what they need from others, and practical steps to form steadier connections.

Client-centred therapy puts the person’s experience first and relies on listening, empathy and reflective conversation. In remote sessions this can help people feel heard while they talk through current problems and decide on next steps together.

Cognitive behavioural therapy is goal oriented and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. Online sessions can include short exercises, homework and step-by-step plans to test new ways of coping between meetings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will help clients choose methods that match their needs, goals and preferences, and decisions are made together as therapy unfolds.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into daily routines and the option of different ways to meet depending on what suits someone best. Some people prefer a shorter audio check-in when time is tight, while others choose longer video meetings for deeper conversation. Confirm the exact session formats offered before booking, and plan sessions around quieter times or breaks in the day to help make therapy part of ordinary life.
