About Antonella
Antonella Stacchiotti is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people managing stress, anxiety and the effects of trauma and abuse. She works with loss and grief, low self-esteem, motivation struggles and life changes. Antonella approaches conversations with sensitivity and respect and aims to tailor each session to the person sitting across from her.
She trained and practised in the UK and has around 14 years of professional experience as a BACP counsellor.
Background and approach
That background has involved helping people who face panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, chronic illness and problems with attachment or abandonment. In sessions Antonella focuses on practical steps as well as talking things through. She and the client shape a plan together that reflects immediate needs and longer term goals.
People bring worries about work stress, relationship communication, guilt or a sense of lost purpose, and sessions can address these topics in bite-sized ways. Antonella offers therapy in English and Italian. She uses a variety of evidence-based techniques suited to each person rather than one fixed method.
Her aim is to empower people to find coping strategies that fit their life. Her working style is straightforward and compassionate. She invites clients to take the first step toward change and provides steady support while people try new approaches and build confidence.
Evidence-based approaches and how they work online
Antonella draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that combine practical skills with reflective conversation. One common element is working on breathing and grounding exercises alongside talking through panic and anxiety to reduce immediate distress and build steadier coping. This helps people who experience panic attacks or sudden overwhelm.Another strand focuses on processing trauma and post-traumatic stress through paced, structured dialogue and gradual exposure to difficult memories. The work moves at the person’s pace and includes strategies for managing intense reactions between sessions. These approaches also support people dealing with grief, guilt or relationship patterns linked to attachment and abandonment.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process and happens collaboratively. Antonella listens to each person's goals, reviews what has helped before, and adapts methods as therapy progresses so the plan fits changing needs and preferences.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, offering practical flexibility. Video is useful when visual cues matter, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited or a quick verbal check-in is needed, and messaging or chat can suit shorter reflections or ongoing support between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and mobility needs while keeping the focus on progress and practical strategies.
