About Antony
Antony Stuart uses approachable, relationship-focused therapy to help people break repeating patterns and find clearer ways forward. He speaks plainly and listens carefully, so clients can talk about anxiety, low confidence, relationships and old wounds without feeling judged. With ten years' experience Antony draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current reactions.
He also uses client-centred methods to prioritise the person's experience and cognitive behavioural techniques to spot and shift unhelpful thinking.
How Antony works
Sessions are practical and paced to each person's needs. People come for many reasons - stress, grief, problems with intimacy, parenting pressures, addiction, anger or difficulties with change. Antony can also support those dealing with trauma and abuse, ADHD-related concerns, body image, codependency and communication struggles.
He helps people understand what lies beneath their behaviour and feelings. Antony is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. He works with adults from the United Kingdom and accepts international clients where suitable.
All conversations are conducted in English. Online sessions are available by video, phone, live chat or text messaging. Antony uses a collaborative approach - setting goals together and reviewing progress as therapy continues.
If someone is unsure where to begin, he encourages starting from whatever feels most pressing.

Online support options
How Antony's approaches work online
Antony commonly blends attachment-based work and cognitive behavioural techniques to support emotional change. Attachment-based therapy looks at how early relationships affect current reactions and helps people notice and change repeating patterns. Cognitive behavioural therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying new ways of responding to reduce distress.He aims to find the right mix together with the person in therapy. That means talking about goals, testing what helps, and adapting methods if something is not working. The process is collaborative so the approach can shift as needs and preferences become clearer.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when a simpler check-in is needed or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins, note-taking between sessions or people who prefer typing to speaking. These options give flexibility while keeping the focus on the therapeutic work rather than logistics.
