Wyon Stansfeld, BACP

Counsellor and BACP member Wyon Stansfeld has 32 years of experience working with people facing anxiety, depression, relationship problems and a wide range of life challenges. He works in the United Kingdom and speaks English. He lists relationship issues, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, addiction, grief and parenting among his main concerns.

Wyon practises an integrative style that draws on counselling, psychotherapy and meditation-based methods. He offers sensitive listening and uses mindfulness and authentic relating as part of how he works. He does not use one fixed formula and adapts methods to what seems helpful for each person.

Sessions are conversational and interactive. He says he may offer observations or a respectful challenge when that would help the process. The focus is on helping people access their own resources and find ways to reduce avoidable suffering.

His work covers many issues beyond mood and stress, including attachment and codependency, communication problems, dissociation, domestic violence, fatherhood issues and immigration-related concerns. He also lists bipolar, ADHD and compassion fatigue among the topics he can address.

Wyon describes using techniques that have shown effectiveness for self-acceptance and practical change. He prefers a flexible, person-centred way of working rather than rigid steps. People who want a measured, conversational style and practical tools may find this approach straightforward.

To start, clients follow the site process to match and arrange a first session. The counsellor treats the session as a shared process, with attention to what the individual needs at each stage.
