About Esther

Esther Levy helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood, or difficult life changes. She supports those struggling with grief, relationship strain, parenting challenges, anger, trauma and abuse, and self-esteem concerns. Esther works in a straightforward, respectful way and speaks English. She is based in the United Kingdom and is registered with the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy).

Esther uses a client-centred approach that puts the person at the heart of the conversation. She believes people know their own story best and that therapy is a space to notice strengths and make changes at a comfortable pace. Sessions focus on what matters now and on practical steps a person can try between meetings.

Her background includes six years of professional experience supporting people through loss, family problems, and major life transitions. She also helps with issues such as abandonment, adoption and foster care concerns, blended family dynamics, and challenges that come with ageing or serious illness. Esther is familiar with experiences involving domestic violence, isolation and loneliness, guilt and shame, and end-of-life matters.

Therapy with Esther typically looks calm and conversational. She listens, reflects, and helps clients identify small, achievable goals. When appropriate she may introduce techniques to help manage emotion and build confidence. Clients can expect a respectful, steady presence while they work through tough moments.

Esther accepts international clients and offers a variety of online formats to suit different needs. She aims to make therapy accessible and practical for people juggling busy lives.

Client-centred support available online

Esther works from a client-centred approach which means sessions focus on the person and their needs. The therapist listens closely, reflects what is said, and helps you identify strengths and next steps. This way of working is useful for issues like low self-esteem, relationship strain, and coping with life changes.

She may also bring in practical techniques when they fit the client’s goals, using simple exercises to manage emotion and build confidence between sessions. These methods are chosen together so the work matches what each person wants to achieve and feels comfortable trying.

Online therapy with Esther uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets you see facial cues and have a fuller conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check-in. Live chat and text work well for shorter exchanges, reflection between sessions, or when writing feels easier than speaking.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and the therapist will collaborate with each client to pick formats and techniques that fit their needs, goals and daily routine. The online options aim to make therapy more flexible and accessible for people balancing work, family or other commitments.
