About Stephanie Weatherley
Stephanie Weatherley is a down-to-earth, warm and slightly quirky counsellor who aims to make the process of choosing support less daunting. She brings a genuine belief in people and an understanding that life circumstances shape how each person is seen and treated. Born in the south of England and now based in Northumberland, she appreciates the calming influence of the coast and often enjoys walking her dogs on the beach, arts and crafts, sea swimming and reluctantly going to the gym.
Stephanie offers an integrative counselling style that places the individual at the centre of their own journey. Her practice is mainly person-centred, drawing on additional methods including cognitive behavioural therapy, psychodynamic ideas, Gestalt and Transactional Analysis to create a flexible approach. This blend of techniques is used to explore thoughts, worries and emotions, identify unhelpful patterns, and develop practical steps and coping strategies that work for each person.
With over 3 years of direct counselling experience and a decade of work in the charity support sector providing helpline and counselling services, Stephanie works with adults and adolescents on issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse. She has particular experience with ADHD and autism and adapts sessions to support difficulties with time management, focus and attention, introducing tools and skills tailored to each person’s needs. Her trauma work includes support for childhood trauma, sexual abuse, domestic violence and PTSD, and she uses techniques such as visualisation, grounding and specific skills for panic and dissociation when appropriate.
Stephanie seeks to build trusting, compassionate relationships where people feel able to explore difficult material without judgement. Her goal is to help people gain greater autonomy, improve wellbeing and work towards lasting personal and professional goals. She is registered with the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which is a professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the UK.

Could Remote Therapy Be a Good Fit for You?
Many people wonder whether meeting a therapist online can make a meaningful difference. For a wide range of common concerns - including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges and life transitions - online therapy can offer comparable support to traditional in-person sessions and may suit people looking for alternative ways to access help.
One of the main benefits is flexibility. People can connect with a therapist in the format that feels most comfortable - through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or in-app messaging - making it easier to fit sessions around work, family and daily routines. This adaptability often helps sustain regular contact and continued progress.
Therapists who offer remote work are licensed professionals and the therapeutic approaches used online mirror those used face to face. If the match with a particular therapist does not feel right, it is usually possible to switch to a different practitioner to find a better fit for personal needs and style.
