About Antony

BACP. Antony Stuart has ten years' experience. He works with adults on issues such as anxiety, depression, grief, parenting stresses and relationship difficulties, using approaches listed below in his own practice.

Antony describes many difficulties as patterns that make sense when looked at closely. He invites clients to talk through how they think about themselves and how they relate to others. Sessions focus on understanding repeated thoughts, feelings and behaviours and considering practical ways to change them.

His counselling blends Attachment-Based, Client-Centred and Cognitive Behavioural elements alongside Emotionally-Focused methods and Motivational Interviewing. That mix is used to explore past experiences, current coping strategies and goals for the future. Antony aims to help people develop clearer self-understanding and more effective ways of responding to stress and relationships.

He can address a wide range of concerns including self-esteem, career pressure, addictions, family conflict, trauma and intimacy-related difficulties. Additional focus areas noted include abandonment, attachment issues, body image, codependency and dissociation.

Sessions are conducted in English and Antony accepts international clients. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, select the See online counselling options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

How Antony's approaches translate to online counselling

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships and how early experiences shape current reactions; it can help when intimacy, trust or separation cause ongoing distress. Client-Centred Therapy puts the client's perspective at the centre and involves reflective listening and gentle exploration of feelings to help people understand themselves better. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns and reduce anxiety or low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Antony will discuss options and agree a way forward with each person. He aims to match methods to the individual's needs, goals and preferences rather than applying a single model from the start.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work, caring responsibilities or travel, and some formats allow shorter check-ins or telephone calls when video is difficult. Registered or accredited professionals often use online sessions to maintain continuity of care and to offer flexible scheduling.
