About Stilyana

Stilyana Massey is a UK-based counsellor with four years of clinical experience supporting people through a range of emotional challenges. She works with stress, anxiety, grief and loss, low self-esteem, depression, and the transitions that come with life change, tailoring conversations and plans to each person she meets. Stilyana also offers focused support for issues such as abandonment and attachment concerns, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, relationship and communication difficulties, control issues, separation and divorce, guilt and shame, loneliness, questions about life purpose, panic attacks, pregnancy and childbirth, and cultivating self-love.

She practices with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, shaping therapy around individual needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. Stilyana draws on established methods to help clients find practical ways to cope and move forward, and she speaks both English and Bulgarian, providing culturally aware care for speakers of those languages. Stilyana holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, a professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the United Kingdom - and brings that framework to her professional practice. Her work is grounded in listening closely to each person and adapting support to their unique situation.

Approaches and Online Support for Personal Change

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client’s experience guides the work. It helps people build self-understanding, confidence, and emotional resilience during difficult transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers practical strategies to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and panic by changing unhelpful thinking patterns and habits. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes setting clear, achievable goals and identifying small steps that lead to noticeable improvements, which can be especially useful for people seeking practical progress in areas like stress, motivation, or relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Stilyana collaborates with clients to select and adapt methods that match their needs, goals, and personal preferences. She works together with each person to try techniques and refine the plan as therapy progresses.

Online therapy with Stilyana is available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access regular support from licensed professionals without travel, allowing sessions to fit more naturally into daily life while maintaining the continuity and structure that help produce meaningful progress.
