Stella Hendricks, BACP

Stella Hendricks is a UK-credentialed therapist who holds the BACP credential and has five years of professional experience supporting people with self-esteem and confidence, relationship difficulties, stress and anxiety, sleep problems, and motivation concerns. She works from a psychodynamic perspective, exploring the deeper patterns, early experiences, and emotional dynamics that shape how someone thinks, feels, and connects with others. This approach aims to increase self-awareness and support the development of healthier ways of relating both to oneself and to important people in life.

Stella strives to provide a warm, open, and supportive space where clients can speak honestly and feel heard without judgment. Therapy moves at each person's pace, with careful attention to underlying feelings and recurring patterns rather than only surface symptoms. The goal is to help clients build a more grounded, compassionate relationship with themselves and to notice changes in how they relate to others.

She recognises that reaching out for therapy is a courageous first step and welcomes those who are ready to begin the process of understanding and change.

Attachment and Psychodynamic Approaches Delivered Online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape expectations, trust, and intimacy in later life. It explores patterns of closeness and distance to help clients understand and change repeating relationship dynamics. Psychodynamic Therapy looks at the deeper emotional patterns and early experiences that influence current thoughts, feelings, and behaviours, offering a space to uncover longstanding themes that affect wellbeing.

Choosing the right therapeutic approach is part of the work itself. Stella collaborates with each client to identify which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the focus as therapy progresses so the approach fits the individual rather than the other way around.

Online therapy with Stella is available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, giving practical flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals from different locations, accommodate work and family commitments, and allow clients to select the format that feels most comfortable for them.
