About Steven

Steven Hall is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. He works with people who are managing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, and grief. Steven focuses on clear, practical ways to talk through problems and plan next steps.

He keeps sessions straightforward and person-centred. Conversations are guided around what each person brings in. He uses a mix of approaches such as cognitive and emotional work to help people notice patterns and try new responses.

Steven often helps with self-esteem, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and problems with sleeping or eating. He also supports people facing life changes, career pressures, compassion fatigue, ADHD and chronic illness. Additional areas he has worked with include attachment issues, avoidance and body image concerns.

In sessions he draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at thoughts and values. Attachment-based ideas and Emotionally-Focused Therapy are used when relationships and connection are central to the difficulty. The goal is to find concrete steps that fit each person’s situation.

Practical matters such as session planning, pacing and follow-up are discussed together. Steven asks about what has helped before and what is realistic now. To begin, people are invited to use the site matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How his approaches work for online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thought patterns and clarify what matters to them. It supports taking small values-based steps even when anxiety or avoidance are present. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns. These tools are often used for anxiety, sleeping problems and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how past and current relationships shape responses now and can help when relationship issues or intimacy concerns are central.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Steven will discuss the options and adapt methods based on what the person wants and needs. This is a collaborative process where goals and preferences shape which techniques are used and how sessions are paced.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins, or avoid travel time. It also means people can try talking without needing to be in the same room, which some find helps them begin discussing difficult topics.
