About Estar
Estar Wells is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and a member of the National Counselling Society (NCPS). She has seven years' experience working in the United Kingdom. Estar works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem and the practical strains of major life changes.
She helps people struggling with grief, trauma and abuse, addictions and codependency, and those dealing with intimacy or eating and sleeping problems. Estar also supports people facing career pressures, caregiver stress and issues around ageing. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are accepted.
Estar draws on an integrative approach that mixes attachment-based ideas, client-centred ways of working and cognitive behavioural techniques. She can offer more structured, short-term work when someone wants concrete steps and clear goals. In therapy she listens, reflects and gives direct feedback rather than handing out advice.
The practical focus is on what someone wants to change. Estar will help clarify concerns, spot repeated patterns such as people-pleasing or difficulty saying no, and practise skills like setting boundaries or managing anxiety. Work can include talking through relationship patterns, addressing abandonment or attachment worries, and building clearer communication habits.
Her stated aim is to be consistent and patient with people as they sort things out. To begin, clients choose the online therapy options, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session. Fees vary with location and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Estar uses attachment-based thinking to look at how early patterns shape current relationships. This helps when someone struggles with clinginess, avoidance or fears around abandonment. Client-centred work means sessions focus on the person's perspective and priorities, with the counsellor reflecting back what is said rather than directing the process. Cognitive behavioural techniques add practical tools for managing anxiety, changing unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviours.Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the work. Estar will discuss goals and preferences and help agree which methods to use. That decision is collaborative and may shift as the work progresses.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and avoid travel time. They also allow people to choose quieter surroundings or switch off the camera when that helps them focus. Registered or accredited professionals, including counsellors, can use different approaches online and will adapt methods to suit someone’s practical needs and goals.
