About Esther
Esther Levy is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with six years of professional experience. She supports adults with common early-adulthood pressures such as stress and anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief and low self-esteem. Esther also helps people coping with big life changes and the day-to-day strains of parenting and family problems.
She uses a client-centred approach that treats the person, not the problem. Sessions focus on what matters to the individual and on building practical ways to manage emotions and decisions. Esther often includes Emotional Freedom Technique, sometimes called tapping, as a tool to release strong feelings and unblock stuck patterns.
In sessions she listens for strengths clients already have and helps them apply those strengths to current challenges. Conversations are straightforward and aim to break issues down into manageable steps. That can mean working on confidence, motivation, or clearer communication in personal relationships.
Esther has particular experience with trauma and abuse, anger, grief, and the complexities that come with adoption or blended families. She also supports people facing health-related challenges such as cancer, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and ageing issues.
People often come to her when feeling isolated, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward. Work can include short-term coping strategies and longer conversations about values, forgiveness, guilt, or rebuilding after loss. For anyone unsure how to start, she guides the initial steps and practical arrangements for sessions.
How her approaches work in online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy places the client's concerns at the centre of each session. The therapist listens closely and follows the person's lead, helping them make sense of thoughts and feelings and decide on practical next steps. This approach can be useful for stress, relationship problems, low self-esteem and the confusion that often comes with life transitions.Emotional Freedom Technique, or tapping, is used as a brief, practical method to reduce the intensity of upsetting feelings. It combines gentle physical tapping with focused attention on an emotion or memory to help people feel calmer and more able to think clearly in the moment. It can be helpful for anxiety, grief reactions and anger that feel overwhelming.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, try methods that fit the client's needs, and adjust the plan over time. That means sessions can include talking, practical exercises or tapping, depending on what helps.
Session practicalities should be confirmed before booking because the biography does not list formats. Ask which formats are currently offered and choose what fits daily life. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around study, work or busy schedules, and some formats may be shorter or better for quieter check-ins or for people who prefer not to use video.
