Background and approach

With eight years of clinical experience, Stina draws on a few different approaches rather than one fixed method. She often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and cognitive behaviour techniques alongside attachment-informed ways of thinking about relationships. Her work is person-centred and trauma-aware, meaning she follows the client’s pace and choices.

She writes and speaks plainly about body and mind connections. Mindfulness and gentle grounding practices are offered when useful. Stina aims to help clients build skills, notice unhelpful patterns and try new responses within everyday life.

Stina describes her practice as queer-affirming and intersectional. She supports people exploring identity and intimacy-related issues, and those dealing with cycle-related health concerns. The focus is on helping each person reclaim agency and steady their emotional life.

Evidence-informed approaches for online support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice thoughts without getting stuck in them and commit to actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, avoidance and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and insomnia.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Stina will talk with each client about goals and preferences and together they will try approaches that fit the person’s needs. Sessions can adapt over time as different skills or perspectives become more useful.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is low, and live chat or messaging can be useful for short check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options help people fit therapy into busy routines and access support from different locations.
