About Estar

Estar Wells is a fully qualified therapeutic counsellor and life coach who brings a warm, grounded presence to her private practice. She is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and holds membership with the National Counselling Society, along with graduate membership of the British Psychological Society. Her work supports people facing depression, stress and anxiety, bereavement, loneliness and low self-esteem, and she has particular experience with life transitions, relationship difficulties and couples therapy.

Her practice is integrative, drawing on a range of theories chosen to suit each person’s needs. She commonly uses Person-Centred ideas alongside psychodynamic perspectives, Transactional Analysis and cognitive behavioural techniques, and will sometimes include solution-focused or brief therapy methods when a more structured, goal-oriented approach is helpful. This flexibility allows her to work with both longer-term exploration and focused practical change.

Estar’s person-centred background shapes the way she meets clients - with acceptance rather than judgement, and with genuine feedback offered without directing or advising. She aims to create a calm, patient and respectful space where people feel comfortable talking about what matters to them. Her commitment is to make counselling accessible when it is needed, and she is dedicated to supporting clients as they work through difficult decisions and life changes.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape patterns of connection and trust. It helps people understand their attachment style and how that influences current relationships and emotional responses, which can be especially useful for intimacy issues, grief and difficulties with closeness.

Client-Centred Therapy, also known as person-centred therapy, emphasises a respectful, non-directive relationship where the therapist offers empathy and unconditional positive regard. This approach supports self-exploration, self-esteem work and navigating life changes by helping clients find their own solutions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured, goal-oriented approach that helps identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. It is often used for stress, anxiety, depression and practical coping strategies to manage daily difficulties.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Estar will work with each person to consider their needs, goals and preferences and may integrate elements from different therapies to create a personalised plan. The aim is to discover what fits best for the client rather than prescribing a single method.

Online therapy with Estar is offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, giving flexibility to fit sessions around work, family and travel. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, attend from different locations and choose the format that feels most comfortable, while still working with licensed professionals and therapists who tailor the work to each client’s situation.
