About Mitchell
Mitchell Stevens is a counsellor and therapist with twelve years' experience and full membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). He offers online counselling in English for adults aged 18 and over and draws on both personal and professional experience in his work.
Mitchell spent much of his career in the voluntary sector, supporting people facing homelessness, addiction and mental health struggles. He has worked with Change, Grow & Live and The Forward Trust and has provided community counselling with Ashford Counselling Service and Kent Counsellors. He also supervises clinicians with The Forward Trust.
Clients can expect a down-to-earth approach. He writes that his own therapy changed how he thinks and acts, and he brings that practical perspective to sessions. Conversations are straightforward and human, with room for humour as well as hard topics.
Mitchell draws on a mix of well-known approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Attachment-Based ideas. He uses methods to help people with anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma-related issues and struggles around identity and sexual orientation.
He also has personal insight into family and stepfamily dynamics and a background in the music industry, which informs his understanding of creativity and non-traditional lives. The online format means people can connect from different places; confirm current session options before booking.

How therapeutic approaches fit into online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then commit to actions that reflect what matters to them. This can help with anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns that grew from early relationships and how they affect current connections and trust. It can be useful for relationship difficulties, attachment issues and some trauma-related problems.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns by teaching practical skills for changing them. It is often used for anxiety, depression and sleep or eating difficulties.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mitchell will work collaboratively to recommend which methods fit a person's goals, preferences and life situation. He tailors techniques and checks in to see what is helping as therapy progresses.
Because his practice offers online counselling, clients can arrange sessions to fit around work, caring duties or busy days. Online work can make it easier to keep regular appointments, have shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. Confirm the specific session options available before booking so arrangements match individual needs.
