About Stefan
Stefan Mihailov offers straightforward, person-focused counselling for people feeling overwhelmed by life changes, stress, anxiety or low mood. He meets each person where they are and aims to create space to be heard. Stefan works in English and Romanian and provides online sessions for people in the United Kingdom and abroad.
He draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Attachment-Based ideas and person-centred practice to help people notice patterns in relationships and feelings.
Background and approach
Sessions are conversational and aimed at helping people understand emotions, spot repeating dynamics, and try new ways of relating to themselves and others. Stefan holds a Foundation Degree with Distinction in Integrative Counselling and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society, NCPS.
He has four years of professional experience and has worked in agency settings and independent practice. In sessions Stefan focuses on building a genuine connection. He listens closely, reflects what he hears, and supports people to name difficult feelings.
Over time this often helps people make clearer choices about relationships, work and self-care. Practical arrangements can include video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Stefan uses a subscription model for sessions which can be cancelled at any time, and scheduling is done through the site after a short matching questionnaire.

Online support
Approaches that translate to online work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on understanding and working with strong emotions. It helps when feelings repeatedly influence choices in relationships and daily life. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current ways of relating. It can be useful for people who notice patterns of closeness, distance or avoidance with others. Client-Centred Therapy prioritises listening and a warm, non-judgemental stance to help people find their own pace and answers.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Stefan will discuss goals and preferences and together you will decide which ideas and techniques to try. This collaboration means the work can shift as needs change rather than sticking to one fixed method.
Online sessions can use video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different routines and comfort levels. Video is useful for deeper conversational work, phone sessions can fit a short break at work or when bandwidth is limited, and messaging allows regular check-ins or brief reflections between calls. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, travel or family life while still focusing on emotional understanding and practical change.
