About Wyon

Wyon Stansfeld is a mature counsellor with 32 years of experience. He offers a steady, listening presence for people coping with anxiety, stress, depression and relationship concerns. He also works with trauma, addictions, grief, low self-esteem and difficulties around parenting and family issues.

His work begins with kind, non-judgemental listening. He uses mindfulness and honest, human connection to help people feel heard. He does not believe in one-size-fits-all solutions and avoids fixed formulas.

Wyon follows an integrative approach that draws on counselling, psychotherapy and meditation practices. He selects techniques that have shown helpful results and adapts them to each person’s needs. Sessions aim to build self-acceptance and reduce avoidable suffering.

He keeps the work collaborative and practical. Clients can expect a mix of reflective conversation, gentle challenges and exercises that support daily life. The emphasis is on finding individual solutions rather than imposing a model.

Wyon describes his role as a guide rather than a fixer. He values authenticity and the chance to help people access inner strengths. Over decades of practice he has supported people through life changes, trauma, parenting strains, relationship breakdown and the emotional fallout of major decisions.

How integrative techniques translate to online therapy

Wyon uses an integrative mix of counselling, psychotherapy and meditation practices. Integrative counselling combines reflective listening with practical exercises to address problems like anxiety, depression and relationship tension. Mindfulness-based practices include simple breathing and awareness exercises that help reduce reactivity and build calm in daily life.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with you about your goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. Together you will try approaches and adapt them until they fit your needs and routine.

Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, such as shorter check-ins during a lunch break or evening sessions after work. If you are considering remote sessions, confirm which session formats are currently available before booking. Many people find the flexibility useful for keeping momentum between sessions and practising techniques at home where they can apply them in everyday situations.
