Sebastien Black uses a blend of human-focused approaches to help people tackle stress, anxiety and relationship concerns. They work in plain, practical ways to calm everyday worries and sort through intimate or identity-related issues. Sebastien brings five years of experience and holds an NCPS credential.
Sessions follow a straightforward rhythm – a chance to talk, reflect and try new ways of coping. Sebastien often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice thoughts and commit to values-based action.
Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is used to spot unhelpful thinking and test small behavioural changes. Client-centred work creates a steady, respectful space where the person leads the pace. Common areas Sebastien helps with include depression, grief, sleep problems, anger and career stress.
They also support people with challenges around intimacy, self-esteem, ADHD and compassion fatigue. Additional focus areas include abandonment, attachment issues, body image and communication problems among others. Sessions are offered in English from the United Kingdom and are delivered online in multiple formats.
Sebastien works with people who want practical tools as well as time to reflect on meaning and values. The aim is to leave each session with at least one manageable step to try. People interested in beginning can expect a straightforward sign-up and booking process.
Sebastien approaches each conversation without judgement and keeps therapy focused on the changes the person wants to make.
Therapeutic approaches online and how they help
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It emphasises clarifying what matters to someone and taking small actions that align with those values, which can be useful for anxiety, depression and identity concerns.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour. It involves spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and testing practical behaviour changes to reduce distress and improve sleep, mood and daily functioning.
Client-Centred Therapy gives the person space to lead the conversation while the counsellor offers steady, non-judgemental support. This approach can help people who need time to make sense of relationship, intimacy or self-esteem issues.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Sebastien will talk through options and try methods that match the person's needs, goals and preferences. They often combine elements from different approaches and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls work well for deeper conversations, phone sessions suit those who prefer no video and text options allow shorter check-ins or paced exchanges. These formats give flexibility to fit therapy around work, family and daily life while still focusing on practical steps and reflective work.
