Steven Worswick, BACP

Steven Worswick guides people through difficult moments with a calm, person-centred approach. He acknowledges how hard it is to look for help and aims to create an environment that feels easy to enter. Steven is introduced by name so people know who they will be working with from the start.

He trained and works using a person-centred style and draws on solution-focused and trauma-focused methods when they help. Sessions are warm and interactive. He listens first, then helps people find practical steps that match their goals.

Steven has four years of clinical experience and holds BACP registration, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. He has supported people facing anxiety, stress, grief, depression and addiction, and those dealing with life changes such as divorce or career shifts. He has also worked with issues around intimacy, body image, eating and sleeping difficulties, and caring responsibilities.

Additional areas Steven focuses on include adoption and foster care, attachment and blended family issues, chronic illness and pain, and the effects of trauma and domestic violence. He also has experience with people who have encountered the criminal justice system and emergency services personnel, so he is familiar with related workplace pressures.

Steven describes his manner as respectful and compassionate. He helps people talk through what matters, identify manageable steps and build on what’s already working. If someone is ready to start, he offers a straightforward process to begin therapy.

How person-centred and solution-focused work online

Steven uses a person-centred approach that focuses on listening and understanding each person's priorities before suggesting any steps. This helps people feel heard and shapes sessions around what matters most to them.

He also employs solution-focused techniques that zero in on small, practical changes. These are useful for tackling stress, coping with life changes and setting short-term goals that build confidence.

Trauma-focused methods are used when past events affect day-to-day life, helping people process difficult memories and reduce their ongoing impact.

Finding the right approach is part of the work and will be decided together. The therapist will talk through options, check what a person prefers, and adapt methods to match needs and goals in a collaborative way.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow for real-time, face-to-face conversation. Phone sessions can be quicker check-ins or suit lower bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for shorter updates or when writing is easier than speaking. These formats make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caregiving and travel, and they give people more choice in how they engage with a therapist.
