Stina Boro

Stina Boro is an ACA counsellor who helps people manage anger, stress and anxiety. She also supports those dealing with relationship difficulties, grief, addiction and changes in mood such as depression or bipolar. Her style is warm and collaborative, focused on helping people find practical ways to cope day to day.

Stina draws on a mix of approaches to suit each person's needs. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help identify unhelpful thinking and build practical skills. Attachment-based and client-centred ways of working guide how she holds relationships and understanding of past hurts.

Sessions are presented in plain language and aim to be down-to-earth. Stina works with breathing and grounding practices when they are helpful, and keeps exercises short and simple so they can fit into a busy life. The focus is on building small, sustainable changes rather than quick fixes.

Her background includes eight years in mental health and community services. This experience informs how she supports people through trauma, identity questions, parenting challenges and career stress. Stina offers an affirming approach for LGBTIQ+ clients and those navigating intimate or sexual identity concerns.

People who meet with Stina can expect an exploratory first few sessions to set goals and decide on practical steps. She encourages a steady pace and works with people to build self-trust and clearer communication. To begin, clients select the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire.

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to meaningful action. It is useful for anxiety, anger and adjusting to life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practising new responses, which can reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety and improve daily functioning. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current behaviour and helps people develop safer ways of relating to others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Stina looks at your goals, preferences and what has helped before. She will suggest a mix of methods and adjust them as you go, so therapy matches your needs and pace.

The therapist's biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online therapy can help fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and make it easier to maintain continuity during work or family changes. It also allows use of short practical exercises between meetings and makes it simpler to try different tools such as grounding practices or brief skills coaching without needing a long commute.
