About me
Steph – NCPS Registered Integrative Therapist
Counselling for Trauma, Domestic Abuse, Addiction, Children & Young People
Hi, I’m Steph. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile.
I believe no problem is too big or too small to talk about in therapy. My priority is to create a safe, comfortable, and non-judgemental space where you feel able to bring absolutely anything to our sessions. There are no topics off limits.
Counselling is about helping you regain control of your life, and our work together will focus on ensuring you get exactly what you need from therapy. Sessions are guided by your goals, your pace, and what feels most helpful for you.
My role is to support you through the process with empathy, honesty, and encouragement - helping you feel stronger, more confident, and better able to manage the challenges you are facing. You won’t be doing this alone.
Training, qualifications & experience
My Approach
I work using a foundation of person-centred counselling approach, meaning you are at the heart of the therapeutic process. I believe each individual already has the capacity for growth and change, and therapy can help unlock that potential.
Depending on your needs, I may also draw on other therapeutic approaches such as:
- Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
- Trauma-focused techniques
- Motivational Interviewing
- Solution-Focused Therapy
- Creative and play-based therapies
This allows therapy to be flexible, supportive and tailored to each individual client.
A significant part of my professional experience includes working with:
- Children and young people
- Domestic abuse and coercive control
- Sexual assault and sexual abuse
- Trauma and PTSD
- Addiction and recovery
- Offending behaviour
I also support clients experiencing a wide range of emotional and psychological challenges, including:
- Anxiety and panic attacks
- Depression and low mood
- Stress and burnout
- Relationship difficulties
- Low self-esteem and confidence
- Grief and bereavement
- Self-harm and suicidal thoughts
- Eating disorders
- Neurodivergence
- Family difficulties
- Work-related stress
- Children & Young People Counselling
I have extensive experience supporting children, teenagers and young adults. I use a variety of creative and therapeutic tools, including:
- Play therapy
- Art-based therapy
- Sand tray therapy
- Creative expression techniques
These approaches help younger clients communicate feelings and experiences in ways that feel natural and safe.

Further information
I am passionate about breaking the stigma surrounding issues that are still considered “taboo” in modern society, and I believe that, with the right help at the right time, everyone can find the healing that they need to lead a happy life.
