About Wyon
Wyon Stansfeld works with relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, anxiety, depression and a wide range of other life challenges using an integrative approach based on mindful listening and authentic relating. He is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has 32 years of experience in practice.
He sees issues such as low self-esteem, addictions, grief, parenting strain, anger, and major life changes. He also works with concerns linked to attachment, codependency, communication problems, dissociation and family of origin issues. Wyon describes his style as flexible and interactive rather than following a fixed formula.
His method combines counselling and psychotherapy ideas with meditation practices. This means sessions often include attentive listening, present-moment awareness, and practical techniques that have shown helpful results for many people. He says he draws on a range of approaches to suit the person in front of him.
Wyon aims to help clients access their own resources and increase self-acceptance. He will offer observations or a respectful challenge when appropriate. The focus in sessions is on exploring what is happening for the client and finding individual ways forward.
He has worked with people facing bereavement, trauma, illness, loss of meaning and related stresses. His long experience means he has seen many different situations and adapts his approach to the needs and preferences of each person.
Sessions are conversational and practical, with attention to present concerns and helpful techniques drawn from meditation and psychotherapy traditions.
How his therapeutic approaches work in online sessions
Wyon uses an integrative mix of counselling, psychotherapy ideas and meditation practices. Integrative work means combining techniques that may help with mood, relationships and feeling overwhelmed, such as reflective listening and practical exercises to build coping skills. Meditation-based practices focus on present-moment awareness and breathing exercises that can reduce reactivity and support emotional regulation.
The choice of approach is collaborative. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences, then suggest techniques to try. This is a process of checking what helps and adjusting methods over time so the work fits the client’s needs and pace.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people value online sessions because they can fit work or family commitments more easily, make it simpler to attend from different locations, and allow brief check-ins when needed. The therapist will help agree a practical plan for how sessions take place and how often they run to fit everyday life.
Sessions take place through BetterHelp by video, phone or messaging. We will earn a commission if you sign up.
