About Angela
Counsellor Angela Stone is a BACP member with 15 years of professional experience. She works with people in the United Kingdom on relationship and family matters, grief, parenting, self-esteem, career issues and coping with life changes.
Angela hears people who feel weighed down by anxiety and loneliness. She helps those who find it hard to connect with others or who are struggling with parenting and low confidence. She also works with people affected by trauma and with those facing separation or bereavement.
Her approach mixes practical problem-solving with attention to personal history. Angela uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to look at current thoughts and habits. She draws on psychodynamic ideas to consider how past experiences shape present choices. She also uses Solution-Focused methods to set short-term goals and recognise progress.
Sessions are conversational and straightforward. Angela invites people to talk about what they notice, what they want to change, and what small steps might help. She aims to make sessions clear and manageable, with tasks or reflections between meetings when useful.
Her work includes particular attention to adoption and foster care, blended family issues, caregiver stress and fatherhood questions. Other areas she supports include communication problems, hoarding, isolation, money worries and finding a sense of purpose.
People usually start by completing a short matching questionnaire and booking a first session. Angela accepts people from the UK and internationally who can work in English.
How Angela uses CBT, psychodynamic work and solution-focused methods online
Angela uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people notice how thinking patterns affect feelings and actions. CBT typically involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small changes to behaviour to reduce distress or improve coping.She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at how past relationships influence current reactions. This approach can help people make sense of recurring patterns and long-standing emotional difficulties.
Solution-Focused Therapy is used to set clear, short-term goals and spot what is already working. It tends to be practical and oriented to small, achievable steps that build momentum.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Angela will discuss options with each person and decide together what fits their needs, goals and preferences. The first sessions often clarify whether more structured techniques or reflective exploration will help more.
The practical benefits of online counselling can include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time.
