About Stephanie

Stephanie Viggars is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy difficulties. She also supports people facing parenting challenges, grief, sleep problems, anger and low self-esteem. Stephanie aims to make the first step less daunting and offers a respectful, compassionate space to begin.

She works in a conversational way and tailors sessions to each person’s needs. That means talking through what matters most to you, setting practical goals, and adjusting the pace as needed. Stephanie combines structured approaches with a personable style so conversations stay focused and useful.

Her practice has included work with trauma and abuse, compassion fatigue and issues around sexuality and attachment. She also supports people dealing with career pressures, postpartum depression and neurodiversity-related concerns such as ADHD. The emphasis is on coping strategies and clearer communication rather than quick fixes.

Stephanie holds registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, shown as BACP. She brings around four years of professional experience working with adults from different backgrounds. Her approach is grounded in evidence-based therapeutic techniques and practical listening.

Sessions are offered in English and Stephanie accepts international clients. If you prefer a collaborative, down-to-earth counsellor who will adapt sessions to your life, she may be a fit for the kind of family and parenting-related concerns noted here.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Stephanie uses evidence-based techniques to structure conversations and build coping skills. One common approach focuses on practical problem-solving and managing symptoms of anxiety or low mood by setting small, achievable goals and testing ways to change unhelpful patterns. Another approach centres on improving communication and attachment - helping people notice how they relate to others and try different ways of connecting that reduce conflict and increase closeness.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences, then suggest methods that fit your situation. You can expect to discuss what is working and what needs adjusting so the plan changes with your needs.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the specific formats available before booking. Many people find online work helpful because it makes fitting therapy into a busy life easier, whether that means shorter check-ins during a break or avoiding travel time. Online sessions can support steady progress through regular appointments and practical homework that you can try between meetings.
