About Mitchell
Mitchell Stevens is a counsellor and therapist with 12 years' experience. He is a full member of the British Association for Counsellors & Psychotherapists (BACP). He offers online counselling in English for adults aged 18 and over and accepts international clients.
Before training as a counsellor he worked in the music industry, then moved into roles in the voluntary sector supporting people with homelessness, addiction and poor mental health. He has worked with organisations such as Change, Grow & Live and The Forward Trust, and has experience in community counselling with Ashford Counselling Service and Kent Counsellors.
Background and approach
Mitchell draws on his own journey through therapy to shape his work. He says that personal therapy helped him change how he thinks and acts, and it influenced his decision to train as a counsellor. He describes himself as down-to-earth and human, with a direct manner that still makes space for warmth.
In sessions he uses approaches that include Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside cognitive and client-centred ideas. He helps people talk through anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship and family problems, grief, identity and sexuality issues, and trauma-related dissociation.
Mitchell also brings lived experience of stepfamilies and modern family dynamics, and a background in creative work as a musician, writer and producer. That experience informs how he listens to clients and supports practical change. He offers online video and phone sessions, live chat and text-based work.

Online support
How Mitchell uses therapy approaches online
Mitchell works with Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people understand and change painful patterns in close relationships. EFT focuses on feelings and the interaction between partners or significant others, and it can help when people struggle with connection, hurt or repeated cycles of conflict.He also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then choose actions that match their values. ACT is often useful for anxiety, stress and making changes in everyday life. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to look at how early connections shape current relationships and emotional reactions, and it can help with trust, abandonment and attachment issues.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. Mitchell will talk with the person about goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then shape sessions to fit those needs. This is a collaborative process that can change as progress is made.
Online therapy gives practical flexibility. Video calls are useful for a full conversational session with visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a client prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins, ongoing reflection and support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel.
