Background and approach

Sessions may include gentle grounding, breathwork or simple movement alongside conversation. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy ideas to help people notice unhelpful patterns and make small, values-led changes. Her approach pays attention to attachment and relational patterns.

That helps when the hard parts of life show up in close relationships or when early experiences still shape daily reactions. Stina aims to make therapy feel collaborative and easy to understand rather than clinical or intimidating. Stina brings eight years of experience in counselling and community services.

She integrates mindfulness and somatic awareness to help people feel more settled in their bodies while they work through difficult feelings. Many clients find the mix of breath, movement and practical strategies useful for coping day to day. Sessions are offered in English and are delivered online by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.

People start by completing a short matching questionnaire and booking a session via the Start Therapy button. The subscription used for sessions can be cancelled at any time.

How therapy approaches translate online

Somatic‑informed work notices what the body is telling you about stress and emotion. Online sessions may include guided grounding, breath awareness or simple movement prompts to help people track sensations and calm the nervous system. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on values and small actions. It helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose behaviours that match what matters most, which is useful for anxiety, depression and life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to try different ways of working and choose what feels most helpful. That collaborative process means the plan can shift as goals or needs change over time.

Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face‑to‑face connection, phone sessions suit days when screens feel hard, and live chat or text messaging can support people who prefer writing or need shorter check‑ins. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life while still using approaches like somatic awareness and ACT with appropriately qualified or registered professionals.
