About Estar

Estar Wells is a counsellor who uses a person-centred and attachment-informed approach. She brings seven years of practical experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. Estar aims to create a calm, patient space where people feel heard and not judged.

She often helps with relationship struggles, big life changes and grief. Estar also supports people facing trauma, addiction concerns, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, and career stress. Codependency and attachment-related concerns are among the topics she works with alongside communication and commitment issues.

Her work draws on several approaches to match each person’s needs. Client-Centred Therapy shapes the warm, non-judgemental tone, while Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is used when clients want structured ways to tackle specific problems. Attachment-Based ideas help when past relational patterns affect current relationships.

Estar describes herself as genuine and easy to talk to. She offers feedback without telling people what to do, and she adapts the style of therapy to fit individual goals. Some people prefer a short-term, goal-focused method for practical changes, and this can be included when it suits the client.

She holds BACP and NCPS registrations and works from the United Kingdom. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are accepted. To begin, the service uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time and bookings follow a short matching questionnaire and scheduling process.

How Estar’s approaches guide online counselling

Estar commonly draws on Attachment-Based Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy alongside Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and can help with codependency, trust and intimacy issues. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on creating a non-judgemental, accepting space where the person’s own goals guide the work. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy offers practical steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours when people want structured tools for anxiety, low mood or stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Estar will work together with each person to decide which methods best fit their needs and goals. That collaborative conversation helps shape whether sessions focus on emotional patterns, practical skills, or a mix of both.

The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family life, reduce travel time and allow people to have shorter check-ins when needed. It also supports continuity of care for international clients who wish to work with a UK-based counsellor. Discuss format preferences during the matching steps so sessions suit daily routines and practical constraints.
