About Steven
He trained at The College of Holistic Medicine in Glasgow and holds BACP, which is the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy registration shown in his profile. His training included a Core Capacity Approach that blends client-centred, cognitive behavioural and Gestalt ideas. That background guides how he tailors sessions to each person.
In the room he listens for what matters most to the client and helps turn that into practical steps. He uses techniques from attachment-based work to look at relationship patterns, and draws on CBT tools to change unhelpful thoughts and routines. Mindfulness practices are offered as short exercises to reduce tension and improve focus.
Steven also supports people facing issues such as abandonment, attachment struggles, body image concerns, caregiver stress, chronic illness and co-morbidity. He will work with people dealing with relationship breakdown, domestic violence aftermath, substance misuse and feelings of emptiness.
He has seven years of professional experience. Sessions are conducted in English and his practice is located in the United Kingdom. The site matching process helps prospective clients book a consultation and plan next steps.

How therapeutic approaches work in online sessions
Attachment-based work explores patterns in close relationships and how those patterns affect feelings and behaviour. In online sessions this can help someone notice repeating dynamics and try new ways of relating that reduce anxiety and conflict.Client-centred therapy focuses on being heard without judgement and on the client's own goals. It gives space to tell your story and to find personal strengths that make change possible.
Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers straightforward strategies to break unhelpful cycles. It suits worries, low mood and habits linked to addiction or anger.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk through options and tailor methods to the person's needs, goals and preferences in a collaborative way rather than imposing a single technique.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the profile does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use mindfulness exercises and CBT worksheets between meetings to keep progress moving.
