About Stacey
Stacey Coombes is a counsellor and psychotherapist registered with NCPS and has ten years of practice in the United Kingdom. She works with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, anger, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, grief and other issues young adults commonly face. Stacey also supports people dealing with life transitions, career worries and parenting questions.
Stacey takes an integrative approach. That means she draws on different therapy methods to suit each person. Sessions focus on clear, practical steps alongside talking through feelings and patterns that keep causing pain.
She uses methods from cognitive behavioural therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and build more workable habits. Attachment-based ideas and emotionally focused techniques are also used when relationships and connection are central concerns.
Many clients come with worries about identity, feeling behind peers, starting work or university, money stress or problems with intimacy. Stacey talks through what matters most and helps set realistic short-term goals. Sessions often include simple exercises to practise between meetings.
Language of work is English and international clients are not accepted. Cost varies with location and sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session is scheduled after selecting the See online therapy options button.
How Stacey uses different therapy approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, low mood and feeling stuck when life feels confusing.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It often uses practical exercises to test anxious predictions and build routines that reduce stress and improve mood.
Attachment-Based Therapy examines how early relationship patterns affect current connections. It can be useful when problems with intimacy, trust or communication are central to someone’s distress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Stacey will discuss preferences, goals and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they will choose methods and small steps that fit the person’s needs and pace.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, require less travel and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered and accredited professionals often use remote work to support people juggling study, early careers and parenting without promising a specific format.
