About Mitchell

Mitchell Stevens is a counsellor and a full member of the British Association for Counsellors & Psychotherapists (BACP). He has 12 years' experience and offers work with adults and teenagers on problems such as anxiety, depression, addiction and relationship difficulties.

He has spent much of his career in the voluntary sector in the United Kingdom. That work included roles at Change, Grow & Live and The Forward Trust, where he supported people facing homelessness, addiction and mental health challenges. He has also worked in community counselling services in Kent.

Mitchell offers online counselling in English for adults aged 18 and over. His practice covers a broad range of concerns, including trauma and dissociation, self-esteem, grief and bereavement, sexual identity questions, and issues linked to parenting and blended families.

His way of working draws on several recognised approaches. He uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify values and take workable steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) features when tackling thinking patterns that feed anxiety and low mood. Attachment-based ideas are used to look at how early relationships shape current responses.

Mitchell also brings personal and professional life experience to sessions. He has a background in the music industry and has supported his own recovery and personal change through therapy and training. He says he is direct and genuine in session, and aims to be straightforward and human with clients.

Therapeutic approaches and online counselling

Mitchell draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in his work. ACT focuses on clarifying what matters to someone and helping them take small, value-based steps. CBT looks at how thoughts and behaviours keep problems going and offers practical strategies to change those patterns.

He sees the choice of approach as a collaborative matter. The therapist and client work together to decide which methods fit the client's goals, needs and preferences. Sessions may blend ideas so the plan can adapt as progress is made.

The original profile states that Mitchell offers online counselling in English for adults aged 18 and over. The profile does not list specific session formats here, so confirm the available session types before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so appointments can sit alongside work or family commitments.
