Estar Wells, BACP, NCPS

Estar Wells is a qualified therapeutic counsellor and life coach based in the United Kingdom who brings seven years of practical experience to her private practice. She is registered with professional bodies and holds the BACP and NCPS credentials; BACP stands for the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and NCPS denotes an additional recognised counselling credential. Estar works with individuals and couples presenting with a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, bereavement, self-esteem problems, and life transitions such as career change or separation.

Her practice also addresses other challenges people commonly face, from addictions and trauma to parenting stress, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping difficulties, and compassion fatigue. Estar draws on an integrative approach, tailoring techniques to each person - drawing from attachment-based ideas, client-centred principles, cognitive behavioural strategies, existential perspectives, and relationship-focused methods when appropriate. For some clients she incorporates briefer, goal-focused techniques to work toward specific outcomes within a defined time frame.

Grounded in a person-centred outlook, Estar aims to offer a calm, patient and non-judgemental space where clients can explore their concerns and make practical changes. She values genuine, clear feedback and works collaboratively so that people feel comfortable speaking candidly about their lives. Estar is accepting international clients and offers flexible remote options to suit different needs.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Estar commonly integrates Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into her remote work. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current connections and emotional responses and can help with intimacy issues, trust and relationship repair. Client-Centred Therapy offers a warm, accepting environment where the therapist follows the client’s lead to build self-awareness and self-esteem, which is often helpful for anxiety, low mood and life transitions. CBT is a structured, goal-oriented approach that explores links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and is often used to manage stress, anxiety, depression and unhelpful coping patterns.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Estar works collaboratively with each person to clarify goals, try approaches that fit their needs and adjust the plan over time so therapy is practical and meaningful.

Online therapy with Estar is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and preferences. These options make it easier to access consistent support from registered professionals without the need to travel, and they allow therapy to fit around work, family and other commitments.
