About Stefan

Stefan Nowosielski is a BACP-registered counsellor working in the United Kingdom with four years' experience. He helps people facing relationship stress, anxiety, depression and major life changes, including grief, addiction and issues around intimacy and parenting.

He uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside client-centred work and cognitive behavioural methods. Sessions focus on naming difficult emotions, tracing patterns, and testing new ways of responding. Stefan also draws on existential and mindfulness ideas when they fit the person’s needs.

People come to him for a wide range of worries. These include stress, sleeping problems, work pressures, ADHD-related concerns, trauma and abuse, and struggles with self-esteem. He also supports people dealing with abandonment, blended family challenges, caregiver stress, and commitment or communication difficulties.

In practical terms sessions are conversational. Stefan listens to the situation from the person's point of view, helps clarify what matters most, and works with small, clear steps to change how things feel day to day. He can show techniques for managing distress, reduce unhelpful thinking patterns, and practice different reactions in relationships.

His approach aims to increase understanding of emotional patterns and to help people make decisions that fit their life. Stefan works with adults from a range of backgrounds and identities. To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.

How EFT and related approaches are used in online sessions

Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people put words to strong emotions and notice how those emotions shape relationships and behaviour. It is often used when patterns of reactivity or disconnection cause ongoing pain. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting the person's experience so they can clarify what matters and decide on next steps. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at thought patterns and practical skills to reduce distress and change unhelpful behaviours.

Finding the right approach tends to be collaborative. Stefan will work with each person to see which methods suit their goals and preferences. He checks in about what helps, adapts techniques, and adjusts the focus as understanding grows.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people use quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera if that is preferable. Registered or accredited professionals use these formats to keep work practical and to support progress between sessions.
