Antonella Stacchiotti, BACP

Antonella Stacchiotti is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom. She aims to help people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, grief and low self-esteem. Antonella speaks English and Italian and brings 14 years of professional experience to her work.

She meets people where they are and adapts conversations to each person's needs. Sessions focus on practical steps to cope with life changes, build confidence and manage panic or overwhelming feelings. The goal is to leave sessions with clearer next steps rather than more confusion.

Antonella describes her approach as respectful and compassionate. She listens for patterns such as attachment or feelings of abandonment and gently points these out so they can be addressed. She also works with issues linked to chronic pain, illness and disability, and helps people who carry guilt or shame.

In practical terms, Antonella supports people through traumatic memories and post-traumatic stress, and she helps those seeking more meaning or direction in life. She encourages clients to try ways of coping that fit day-to-day life and to notice small changes over time.

If someone wants to begin, they use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule sessions according to therapist availability. Antonella tailors each plan and checks in regularly to see what is working.

Approaches that can be used in online work

Antonella draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, practical steps. One useful approach helps people learn skills to manage overwhelming emotions and panic attacks by breaking reactions into manageable parts and practising new responses. Another approach addresses the impact of trauma and post-traumatic stress by carefully revisiting distressing memories and developing safer ways to live with those memories.

Choosing the right method is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the person to identify goals, try different ways of working and adjust the plan if something does not fit. This joint exploration helps find approaches that suit the person's needs and day-to-day life.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy routine and reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins when that is helpful, or conversations without needing to be on camera if that suits the person better. Because the original biography does not list specific session formats, confirm the current session options before booking so you know what is offered.
