About Antony

Counsellor Antony Stuart is a BACP member with ten years' experience working in the United Kingdom. He helps people with stress, anxiety, grief, parenting concerns, self-esteem, career questions, addictions, relationships, trauma and related issues. Sessions focus on understanding patterns that keep people stuck and finding practical ways forward.

Antony uses a mix of approaches to match what each person needs. He draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how past relationships influence current ones. He uses client-centred methods to listen and reflect, and cognitive behavioural techniques to spot and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour.

In practice he asks clear questions and offers observations that are easy to put into daily life. Conversations cover thoughts, feelings and relationship patterns. He pays attention to how past experiences show up now and to small changes that can make day-to-day life easier.

Antony has worked across different settings with adults and young people. His background includes supporting people through grief, relationship strain, addiction and life transitions. He also supports those coping with anger, intimacy issues, ADHD and depression.

People can expect a straightforward, conversational style in sessions. Antony will help set practical goals and check progress over time. If you want to explore whether he is the right fit, the usual next step is to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How Antony uses key therapy approaches online

Antony commonly draws on attachment-based work and cognitive behavioural approaches. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships affect current patterns, helping people understand trust, intimacy and recurring relationship problems. Cognitive behavioural work focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and trying practical experiments to change them.

He also uses client-centred methods that emphasise careful listening and reflecting what the client says. That approach helps people feel heard and supports clearer decisions about which techniques to try next. Antony will work with the client to choose which approach or mix of approaches suits their needs and goals; this is discussed together and reviewed over time.

If you want online sessions, check which formats are available before booking because the biography does not specify formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare and travel. It can allow shorter check-ins, reduce time spent commuting and make it simpler to attend from different locations. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists generally aim to adapt exercises and conversations so they work well through the selected format.
