About Mitchell
Mitchell Stevens is a counsellor and therapist in the United Kingdom with 12 years of experience and full membership of the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP). He offers online counselling in English for adults aged 18 and over. His practice covers a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship and family problems, trauma-related dissociation, bereavement and loss, low self-esteem, identity and sexual orientation issues, and more.
Mitchell trained after personal and professional experience led him into counselling. He speaks plainly about the practical changes therapy brought to his life, and he uses that perspective when talking with people. He has worked in nationwide voluntary sector organisations supporting people with homelessness, addiction and mental health needs, and in community counselling services around Kent and Ashford.
He brings long-term experience of family and stepfamily dynamics, and he draws on that life knowledge when conversations turn to parenting, blended-family stress or commitment worries. He also has a background in the music industry, which informs his understanding of creativity and work-related pressures.
Mitchell combines several therapeutic approaches to suit common concerns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is one of the approaches he lists, alongside Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy. He also works as a supervisor with a UK nationwide organisation, The Forward Trust.

Approaches used online and practical session notes
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and working with emotions that shape close relationships. It helps people notice patterns in how they respond to strong feelings and tries to bring clearer emotional communication into key relationships.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that reflect their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression and for coping with life changes where sticking to valued actions matters more than changing every feeling.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds influence current relationships and reactions. It can be helpful when trust, closeness or repeating relationship patterns cause distress.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Mitchell works collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person’s needs, goals and preferences. He will discuss options and adjust the focus as the work progresses so the approach is a shared decision.
Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions around busy days and reducing travel time. Online sessions can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions at times that suit work or family routines.
