About Antonella
Antonella Stacchiotti helps people work through stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem problems and major life changes. She offers one-to-one counselling in English and Italian and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has 14 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.
She works in a conversational way that aims to make difficult topics easier to talk about. Sessions focus on understanding what is causing distress, noticing patterns that keep problems going, and trying practical ways to feel steadier day to day. Antonella encourages clear steps the client can practise between meetings.
Her background includes supporting people with panic and post-traumatic stress, and helping those affected by abandonment and attachment issues. She also works with people managing chronic pain, illness and disability, and with women’s issues. Communication problems, guilt and shame, and questions about life purpose are other areas she addresses.
Antonella adapts the pace to suit each person and aims to build practical coping strategies alongside emotional processing. She explains options and discusses what might help most, then agrees short-term goals. Her approach is direct and aims to increase the client’s sense of control and confidence.
She practises from the United Kingdom and uses language skills in English and Italian. Before booking, confirm the current session formats and any practical arrangements through the booking process.
How her therapeutic approaches work online
Antonella draws on recognised, evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing how someone thinks and behaves. These approaches look at current problems and teach practical skills to manage symptoms such as panic attacks and persistent anxiety.
She also uses trauma-informed methods to help process distressing experiences in manageable steps. This work pays attention to safety and pacing, and aims to reduce the intensity of intrusive memories or reactions over time.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will talk through options, listen to the client’s goals and preferences, and agree a plan to test what helps. They decide collaboratively how to measure progress and adjust methods as needed.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as the biography does not specify them. Remote counselling can make it easier to fit appointments around work and family commitments. It can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions without video when that better suits a person’s schedule or internet connection.
Sessions take place through BetterHelp by video, phone or messaging. We will earn a commission if you sign up.
