About Steven

Steven Hall is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma and abuse, and grief and loss. Steven aims to make practical changes through conversation and focused therapeutic work.

He uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Sessions are built around clear goals and small steps that can be practised between meetings. Steven favours direct conversation about emotions and patterns that keep problems repeating.

People come to him for things like low mood, worry, relationship and intimacy difficulties, issues around self-esteem, and problems with sleeping or eating. He also supports those dealing with career strain, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and life changes that feel overwhelming. Steven talks through coping skills and behaviour changes that are realistic for day-to-day life.

His approach draws on attachment ideas and client-centred listening to help identify what matters most to each person. Therapy may include exploring early relationship patterns, noticing emotional triggers, and building alternatives to unhelpful reactions. He keeps sessions focused and practical so clients leave with clear next steps.

Sessions follow a plan agreed together. Steven asks about progress and adjusts the work as needed. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule an initial session.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Steven works with Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people name and work with difficult emotions and recurring relationship patterns. EFT focuses on how emotions and connections shape problems, and it can be useful for anxiety, intimacy-related issues and repeated interaction cycles.

He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people clarify values and take small committed actions even when feelings are hard. Attachment-Based Therapy informs his work on how early relationship patterns affect current reactions and connections.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss aims, try approaches that match those aims, and adjust the plan based on what helps. This is a collaborative process that focuses on practical steps and learning from each session.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make fitting therapy into a busy day easier, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often adapt exercises and homework for remote sessions so people can practise skills between meetings.
