Shantonia Lewis, BACP

Shantonia Lewis is a BACP counsellor working in the United Kingdom. She draws on four years of professional experience to help people facing stress, anxiety, depression and grief. She aims to create a calm space where clients can talk honestly about what they are finding hard.

Shantonia works within a person-centred approach that keeps the client's experience central. Sessions focus on listening, reflecting and helping people find their own way forward. She helps with self-esteem, motivation and confidence so people can make changes that matter to them.

She also supports people dealing with relationship and family issues, parenting strain, blended family challenges and fatherhood concerns. Other areas she works on include anger, career decisions, life transitions and feelings of isolation or jealousy. Shantonia pays attention to how attachment and past experiences shape present reactions.

Her style is warm and non-judgemental. Shantonia encourages practical steps alongside understanding feelings, so progress can be felt between sessions. She emphasises small, manageable goals and helps clients notice strengths they already have.

People who prefer a conversational, person-led approach often find her helpful. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on the therapist's availability.

Person-centred therapy and online support

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, openness and acceptance. The therapist offers a space where people can speak freely about their feelings and be heard without judgement. This approach often helps with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, grief and relationship concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and together they will decide how to adapt the person-centred approach to fit those needs. That collaborative conversation helps shape what happens in sessions.

Confirm the current session options before booking as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people keep therapy going during life changes by offering more flexible ways to meet with a therapist.
