Antonella Stacchiotti , BACP

Antonella Stacchiotti is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and loss. She works with women’s issues among other concerns and aims to make the first step toward change feel achievable. Her style is respectful and compassionate, and she adapts conversations to each person’s needs.

With 14 years of experience in the United Kingdom, Antonella has supported people coping with grief, low self‑esteem, and major life changes. She also addresses panic attacks, post‑traumatic stress, and problems linked to abandonment and attachment. Chronic illness and long‑term pain are included in her practice, alongside communication difficulties and feelings of guilt or shame.

Antonella uses evidence‑based therapeutic techniques to structure sessions so they feel practical and grounded. She focuses on clear goals and simple strategies clients can apply between meetings. Sessions move at a client’s pace and are shaped around what matters to them right now.

She holds BACP registration, which indicates a professional standing in the UK counselling community. Antonella offers appointments in English and Italian for people based in the United Kingdom. International clients are not currently accepted.

People connect with her for steady support while navigating change, loss, or recovery from past harm. Her aim is to empower clients to find clearer direction and increased confidence as they work through difficult situations.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Antonella draws on evidence‑based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional processing. One common approach is a structured problem‑solving method that breaks large worries into manageable steps and teaches coping strategies for stress and panic. This helps when day‑to‑day symptoms feel overwhelming.

She also uses trauma‑informed ways of working that prioritise safety and pace, helping people process painful memories and reduce the impact of past abuse or post‑traumatic stress. These methods aim to restore calm and a greater sense of control over daily life.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Antonella will talk with each person about their goals, needs and preferences and agree on the techniques to try together. Plans are adjusted as progress is made and as priorities change.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text‑based messaging to suit different routines. Video calls are good for face‑to‑face conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and messaging can fit into busy days or serve as brief check‑ins. These options make it easier to attend sessions from different locations and to choose a format that matches practical needs.
