Antony Stuart, BACP

Antony Stuart is a BACP-registered counsellor and psychotherapist practising in the United Kingdom with ten years' experience. He works with adults who are dealing with anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, bereavement, relationship difficulties, addiction and major life changes. Antony also supports people coping with trauma, parenting strains and challenges linked to ADHD.

Antony explains patterns of thinking and relating in plain terms. He helps people spot repeated reactions and understand where they likely came from. Sessions aim to reduce unhelpful cycles rather than promise a rapid cure.

His work draws on attachment-based ideas and emotion-focused ways of talking about relationships. He also uses client-centred methods that emphasise the person’s own priorities, and cognitive behavioural techniques to address thoughts and behaviours that feed anxiety or anger.

In practice Antony keeps sessions collaborative. He listens for the habits that lead to snapping, bottled-up resentment, or avoidance. Then he and the client try out different ways of responding and noticing what changes.

He has worked in varied therapeutic settings over a decade, supporting adults and young people through grief, relationship strain and trauma. Antony writes plainly and checks understanding, so practical next steps are clear after sessions.

If someone wants to begin, Antony advises a short initial match process to find the right session rhythm. He uses a subscription system for sessions which can be cancelled at any time, and accepts clients from outside the UK.
