Stacey Farrell, BACP

Stacey Farrell is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with a BACP accreditation and six years of professional experience. She focuses on practical support for people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and mood concerns such as bipolar. Stacey works from the view that each person knows their own story and brings strengths to the work of change.

Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. She listens first, then helps people spot patterns that get in the way of wellbeing. Sessions include straightforward tools and small experiments to try between meetings. Stacey aims to make therapy feel manageable for someone juggling everyday life.

Stacey draws on attachment-based and client-centred approaches to build a sense of safety and mutual respect. She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to help people change unhelpful thinking and dialectical behaviour strategies to manage strong emotions. Mindfulness practices are offered to support stress reduction and present-moment awareness.

People commonly bring worries about relationships, intimacy, parenting, work stress, addiction, sleep and eating, and self-esteem. She also works with issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, autism spectrum concerns, chronic health challenges, dissociation and domestic violence. Stacey says the first session is a chance to set priorities and agree practical next steps.

Sessions are conducted in English. Stacey is not currently taking international clients. The service uses a subscription that can be cancelled at any time, and cost varies with location and therapist availability. To begin, clients use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

How Stacey's approaches fit with online therapy

Stacey commonly uses attachment-based work to help people understand patterns in close relationships and build safer ways of connecting. This approach helps when someone wants to change how they relate to others or to manage feelings that come up in relationships.

She also draws on client-centred counselling, which means the counsellor follows the person’s lead and offers empathy and acceptance. That style helps people feel heard while they make sense of difficult experiences. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used to spot unhelpful thoughts and try alternative behaviours, which can be useful for anxiety, mood and coping with change.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and work together to choose techniques that fit what the client needs. This is a collaborative, step-by-step process rather than a fixed programme.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the exact session formats before booking because the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to attend around work, reduce travel time and allow a shorter check-in when needed. It can also let people use mindfulness exercises and practical tools between meetings to support change in daily life.
