About Stephanie

Stephanie Wood offers a compassionate, person-centred approach to counselling from Dragonfly Counselling in York. She creates a warm, non-judgmental space where people can explore feelings of overwhelm, anxiety, grief, relationship strain, or the everyday pressures of life. Her work is grounded in the belief that clients are the experts in their own lives, and her role is to listen, reflect, and support clients as they discover their own solutions.

Therapy with Stephanie is non-directive and paced to each person, focusing on what matters most in every session rather than prescribing answers. With a background in the performing arts, she brings particular insight into the insecurities and self-doubt that can affect creative individuals and enjoys helping clients build self-awareness, emotional resilience, and greater personal freedom.

Stephanie trained on a three-year course and holds a Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling. She has gained practical experience through voluntary roles with local charities and work within a rural GP practice, and she has around 3 years of experience supporting a diverse range of clients. She is a fully qualified and insured counsellor, holds an enhanced DBS certificate, and is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).

Client-Centered Practice and Online Support

Stephanie practices Client-Centered Therapy, a non-directive approach that emphasizes empathic listening and respect for each person’s experience. This approach helps people who are dealing with anxiety, relationship issues, grief, or life changes by creating a space to explore feelings and build self-understanding at their own pace. She also integrates a coaching-minded focus for clients who want practical steps toward goals, which can help with areas such as career clarity, coping strategies, and improving self-esteem.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Stephanie works with clients to identify their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the balance between reflective exploration and goal-oriented coaching so the therapy fits each individual.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can be scheduled as video calls or phone conversations, and alternatives such as live chat or text-based messaging provide ongoing support between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, access consistent care even when travel is difficult, and maintain momentum toward change with a format that suits the client.
