About Stephanie
Stephanie Viggars is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns. She also supports clients dealing with sleep problems, grief, trauma and parenting strains. She presents as calm and respectful and aims to meet people where they are. Stephanie holds BACP registration and brings four years of professional experience to her practice.
In sessions she adapts the conversation and plan to each person's needs. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and focuses on practical steps people can try between meetings. Conversations are collaborative - the aim is to find what helps in everyday life rather than applying one fixed method.
Stephanie has worked with challenges such as anger, low self-esteem, career doubt and coping with life changes. She also supports people with ADHD, compassion fatigue and issues around attachment and communication. When relationship concerns arise she addresses commitment questions, jealousy, non-monogamous arrangements and patterns from family of origin.
People seeking support for postpartum depression, pregnancy and childbirth concerns, seasonal mood changes, self-harm thoughts or sexual identity topics will find these are within her focus. She pays attention to safety and will discuss any immediate concerns openly with the client.
The approach is practical and person-centred. Stephanie will work with clients to set realistic goals and check progress. She encourages small changes that add up to a more settled life and better sleep where that is a concern.
Therapeutic approaches and online working
Stephanie draws on evidence-based techniques that focus on clear, practical steps people can use between meetings. One common approach involves identifying unhelpful patterns in thinking and behaviour and testing small changes to see what improves mood and sleep. This helps with anxiety, depression and day-to-day coping.Another approach concentrates on relationships and attachment patterns. It looks at how earlier family experiences shape current ways of connecting, and uses straightforward exercises to improve communication and intimacy. This can be useful for commitment questions, jealousy and non-monogamous relationship issues.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with each person, weigh up goals and preferences, and agree a plan together. That collaborative process means adjustments can be made if something is not helpful.
Confirm the available session formats before booking as the biography does not list specific online options. Online counselling can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins or fitting a session into a work break. It can also help people keep therapy going when routines change, while the therapist and client decide together how best to use remote sessions.
