Antonella Stacchiotti offers calm, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or big life changes. She writes in a straightforward way and helps clients make sense of difficult feelings. Antonella aims to create a respectful space where concerns can be named and worked through at a steady pace.

She focuses on worry, panic, trauma and abuse, and the ache of grief and loss. Low self-esteem and confidence issues are also common topics in her work.

Background and approach

She pays attention to how attachment and fears of abandonment shape relationships and reactions to stress. Her approach is flexible and tailored. Sessions concentrate on understanding what is happening day to day, spotting unhelpful patterns, and trying small practical steps that feel manageable.

Conversations are direct but warm, and goals are set together so progress can be measured. Antonella draws on 14 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and holds BACP accreditation, which speaks to her membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She works in English and Italian and is available to people based in the UK.

People usually begin by saying what matters most to them and which changes they hope to see. Antonella then helps shape a plan that fits the person’s life and commitments. The focus can be short term problem solving or longer work on patterns that go back years.

How evidence-based approaches can work online

Antonella uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on making small, practical changes and understanding how past experiences affect current feelings. One common approach she uses helps people spot unhelpful thought patterns and test new ways of thinking and acting to reduce anxiety and panic. This approach suits people who want concrete steps to manage worry and panic attacks.

Another strand of her work concentrates on processing trauma and its effects on daily life. This involves gently examining distressing memories, normalising the feelings that follow trauma, and building coping strategies to reduce their impact. This kind of work helps when past events continue to shape mood and relationships.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Antonella will discuss what feels most relevant and try different ways of working until a good fit is found. Goals, pace and techniques are agreed together so the work matches personal needs and preferences.

Online therapy offers flexibility by allowing sessions by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work when bandwidth is low, live chat enables quicker check-ins, and messaging allows short updates between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and health commitments.
