About Mitchell
Mitchell Stevens is a counsellor and therapist with 12 years of practical experience. He is a full member of the British Association for Counsellors & Psychotherapists, BACP, and offers online counselling in English for adults aged 18 and over. He blends professional knowledge with personal experience to make therapy straightforward and down to earth.
Mitchell began working in the voluntary sector with organisations supporting people facing homelessness, addiction and poor mental health.
Background and approach
He has also practised in community counselling settings across Kent and the surrounding area. That background shaped his focus on anxiety, stress, addiction and relationship difficulties. His style is plain and direct.
Sessions are conversational and honest. He uses practical tools from approaches such as cognitive behavioural work and acceptance-based strategies, alongside attachment-informed thinking to look at how past relationships affect current patterns. Mitchell draws on life experience as well as clinical work.
He has personal insight into stepfamilies, blended family dynamics and the pressures of creative careers from a previous life in the music industry. He says this helps him relate to clients’ real-world problems and everyday stresses. Clients can expect a collaborative process.
He helps people identify small, manageable steps to reduce anxiety, improve sleep and rebuild confidence. He also supports work around grief, trauma-related difficulties, sexual identity and issues around intimacy. Sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.
International clients who speak English may also be matched for online work.
How Mitchell uses proven approaches in online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on values-based actions. It is useful for persistent worry, low mood and problems with motivation. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, CBT, focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns to reduce symptoms like anxiety and poor sleep. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current ways of relating and can help with intimacy, trust and long-standing relationship patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mitchell will talk through your goals and preferences and suggest techniques from different models. He aims to decide together which ideas feel most useful and to adapt methods as progress is made.
Online therapy is offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video calls are good for a full face-to-face style session. Phone sessions can fit into a shorter break or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging allow for brief check-ins or ongoing written work between sessions. These options help make therapy fit around work, family and travel commitments while keeping the focus on making steady progress.
