Stella Hendricks , BACP

Stella Hendricks is a UK-credentialed therapist with five years of professional experience supporting people through relationship challenges, low self-esteem, stress and anxiety, sleep disturbances, and struggles with motivation. She works from a psychodynamic perspective, helping clients explore the recurring emotional patterns and past experiences that influence how they think, feel, and relate in the present. This approach aims to illuminate underlying dynamics so clients can develop more balanced ways of relating to themselves and others.

Stella strives to create a warm, open, and nonjudgmental space where individuals can be heard and explore difficult material at their own pace. Sessions focus on uncovering what lies beneath immediate symptoms and on building a more grounded, compassionate self-relationship. She holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which denotes a recognised professional affiliation in the UK for counselling and psychotherapy practitioners.

Reaching out for therapy can be a significant step, and Stella approaches each collaboration with empathy and steady support, working alongside clients to clarify goals and find practical ways forward.

Working Online with Attachment and Psychodynamic Approaches

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape expectations about closeness, trust, and intimacy. It helps people understand attachment patterns, address fears of abandonment or difficulty with commitment, and develop more secure ways of relating to partners and loved ones.

Psychodynamic Therapy involves exploring deeper emotional patterns, recurring themes from past experiences, and the unconscious dynamics that influence current thoughts and behaviors. This approach can be helpful for understanding persistent relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, and emotional responses that feel hard to change.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Stella works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they review what feels most relevant and adjust the focus as therapy progresses.

Online therapy sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These remote options make it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing work, family, and other commitments, and they allow licensed professionals to respond to a range of needs across locations.
