About Violetta
Violetta Staron is a BACP counsellor with 20 years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, sleep problems and life transitions. She works with individuals facing low mood, relationship difficulties, addiction concerns and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. Violetta also helps those coping with grief, trauma, parenting strains and questions about sexuality and identity.
She believes people know their own story and that small changes can make life easier. Sessions focus on practical steps and on spotting patterns that keep problems going. Violetta aims to help clients make decisions that improve day-to-day comfort and satisfaction in relationships.
Her background includes long clinical experience with adults and adolescents across a wide range of concerns. This has given her the ability to adapt how she works to fit different personalities and situations. She draws on a mix of methods to match each person’s needs.
Violetta uses an integrative style that brings together Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Solution Focused ideas and Compassion Focused approaches, with Person-Centred therapy as the base. These methods are used in straightforward ways to tackle worry, sleeping problems, unhelpful thinking and self-criticism.
Sessions are intended to be collaborative and practical. Violetta aims to support people who want clearer choices, better sleep, improved relationships or relief from persistent anxiety. She works in English and Polish to make therapy accessible to more people.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online therapy
Violetta commonly uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which focuses on spotting and changing unhelpful thoughts and routines to reduce anxiety and improve sleep. She also draws on Compassion Focused ideas, which help people work on self-criticism and build kinder ways of thinking about themselves. These approaches are explained in clear, practical steps so clients can try techniques between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the process and happens together. The therapist works with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and life circumstances, and adapts the plan as progress is made. This collaborative way helps ensure techniques feel doable and relevant.
Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into busy weeks and keeping continuity when life is disrupted. Online work can make it easier to keep regular check-ins, to practise sleep routines between appointments, or to have a shorter check-in on a day with less time. Please confirm the session formats offered before booking so arrangements suit your schedule.
