About Stefan
Stefan Nowosielski uses a person-centred approach to help people feeling stuck, overwhelmed or unsure what to do next. He works in a straightforward, caring way and offers time to talk through whatever is causing distress. Stefan’s style is warm and honest, and he aims to help people regain direction and feel more able to make choices that suit them.
He blends client-centred work with practical tools from cognitive behavioural therapy and mindfulness.
Background and approach
That mix helps with managing anxiety, stress and low mood by focusing on what is happening now and small steps to change unhelpful patterns. Emotionally-focused ideas also guide conversations about how emotions shape close relationships and intimacy. Stefan has four years of experience supporting people with a wide range of concerns.
These include depression, anxiety, grief, addiction, trauma and issues linked to parenting, work and identity. He also works with specific difficulties such as hoarding, first responder stress and problems after separation or loss. He is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
Sessions are offered in English and carried out from the United Kingdom. Stefan invites clients to speak openly about their priorities so he can adapt tools and pace to each person’s needs. People who choose to work with him will find an emphasis on listening and helping them find practical ways forward.
The focus is on building self-understanding, improving relationships and developing coping skills that can be used day to day.
Working online with client-centred and cognitive approaches
Stefan uses a client-centred way of working that puts the person’s experience first. That means listening carefully, reflecting back what matters and helping people clarify their goals. This approach is useful for people who want an empathic space to talk through life changes, relationship worries or feelings of emptiness.He also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments. CBT is helpful for anxiety, stress, sleeping problems and low mood because it gives clear steps to try between sessions. Mindfulness techniques are woven in to help with grounding and noticing thoughts without getting overwhelmed.
Choosing a therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Stefan will work with each person to agree what feels most helpful, adjusting methods over time as needs and goals change. The initial conversations are about priorities, not labels, and decisions are made together.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, so people can pick what fits their day. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone work can be useful when bandwidth is limited, and text or chat can suit shorter check-ins or those who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and personal routine.
