About Esther
Counsellor and BACP member with six years of practice, Esther Levy helps people with stress, anxiety, relationships, grief, self esteem and life changes. She also supports those dealing with family issues, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, anger and depression. Esther works in the United Kingdom and carries out sessions in English.
Esther uses a client-centred approach that keeps the person and their experience at the centre of sessions. She listens for what matters most to the client and follows their lead on what to address. This method suits people who want a reflective, non-directive space to talk through difficult feelings and decisions.
Her work includes practical steps as well as space to reflect. She may help people notice strengths they already have. She also teaches simple strategies for coping with stress and anxiety and for managing low mood or anger.
Esther mentions using Emotional Freedom Technique, often called tapping, alongside her client-centred work. She introduces tapping as a tool to help release intense feelings and to reduce emotional blocks when it feels useful to the client.
People who choose Esther will find sessions that focus on their priorities. She encourages clear, straightforward conversation about goals and progress. For anyone in the UK thinking of starting, she asks that they follow the site’s booking steps to match and schedule a first session.
How her approaches work in online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s own view at the centre. The counsellor listens without directing and reflects back what she hears. This approach helps with relationship problems, low mood, grief and general life stress by allowing the client to find their own solutions. Emotional Freedom Technique or tapping is a practical method she may introduce. It involves gentle tapping on points on the body while focusing on difficult feelings. Some people find it helpful for releasing intense emotions linked to trauma, anxiety or anger. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Esther will talk with the client about their goals and preferences and will suggest ways of working together. That makes the choice collaborative rather than fixed from the start. For practical matters, please confirm which session formats she currently offers before booking. The benefit of online counselling is that it can be fitted around daily life. It can remove travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a busy day, and make it easier to attend sessions from different locations. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt techniques like listening, reflection and tapping to an online setting so people can continue therapy when in-person sessions are harder to arrange.Areas of expertise
