Wyon Stansfeld

Wyon Stansfeld is a mature counsellor with 32 years of experience. He offers calm, attentive presence and listens without judgement to people facing major life changes and emotional pain.

He helps with anxiety, stress, depression and addictions, and supports people dealing with bereavement, trauma and loss of meaning. Relationship struggles, intimacy issues and low self-esteem are also common topics he talks through with clients. He also addresses concerns such as anger, parenting strain, career worries and ADHD-related challenges.

Wyon uses a kindly, non-judgemental listening style combined with mindfulness and authentic relating. He works in an integrative way, drawing on counselling, psychotherapy and meditation practices to suit the person in front of him. He does not rely on fixed recipes and adapts methods to each individual.

Sessions are collaborative and interactive. Wyon aims to help people find their own solutions, access inner resources and increase self-acceptance. He will offer gentle challenge or a considered opinion when that seems helpful rather than hiding behind neutrality.

Wyon is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. He practices in the United Kingdom and conducts work in English. People coming to him for support around divorce and separation will find a counsellor used to addressing the emotional aftermath of relationship endings.

How integrative approaches translate to online therapy

Wyon draws on integrative counselling, mindfulness practice and psychotherapy-informed techniques to support people through relationship change and personal crisis. Integrative counselling combines listening with practical exercises chosen to fit the person, helping with issues like depression, anxiety and life transitions. Mindfulness-based work teaches present-moment awareness and simple practices to ease stress and manage strong feelings, which can be useful after separation or loss.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy itself. He will work collaboratively to decide which methods suit your needs, goals and preferences, and adjust the style over time as progress becomes clear. That means you and he agree together on techniques and pace rather than following a fixed plan.

For practicalities, please confirm the session formats offered before booking as the biography does not specify them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life by removing travel, allowing sessions from different locations and offering more flexibility around scheduling. It also makes it simpler to have shorter check-ins when needed, or to pick options that suit quieter surroundings or lower bandwidth situations.
