Estar Wells uses an integrative, person-focused approach to help people facing stress, anxiety and relationship strain. She brings seven years of practice and a calm, straightforward manner to sessions. Estar is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and the National Counselling Society (NCPS).
She supports people dealing with depression, grief and life transitions. She also helps with self-esteem, intimacy-related worries, eating and sleeping problems, addictions and coping with change.
Background and approach
Estar lists many related concerns she can address, such as communication problems, codependency and career stress. Estar blends methods to match each person's needs. Her work draws on Attachment-Based ideas, Client-Centred ways of working, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Existential therapy and elements of the Gottman Method.
Some conversations are exploratory; others are more structured when there are specific goals to reach. Sessions are collaborative and straightforward. She aims to be genuine and non-judgemental, offering feedback without telling people what to do.
This helps clients reflect on patterns and make practical changes in daily life. She offers therapy in English from the United Kingdom and accepts international clients. Sessions are available by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit therapy around work and family life.
How Estar adapts core approaches for online work
Estar often uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach helps people understand closeness, trust and how they react in relationships. She also draws on Client-Centred Therapy, which means conversations are led by the client and the therapist aims to provide acceptance and honest feedback without directing decisions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is used when people want structured steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, useful for anxiety, low mood and sleep or eating issues.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Estar collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. Some people start with open, reflective sessions and later add more goal-focused techniques; others begin with a structured plan from the outset.
Online sessions make this flexibility practical. Video calls are suited to in-depth conversations and visual cues, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed, and live chat or text-based messaging can help people fit therapy into busy days or prefer writing between meetings. These options aim to make regular contact and continuity of care easier for people juggling work, family and life changes.
