About Esther

Esther Levy is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who focuses on parenting concerns and related stresses. She supports people facing anxiety, relationship strain, grief, low self-esteem, anger and depression. Esther also helps with coping through major life changes and managing the impacts of trauma and abuse.

Her way of working is straightforward and respectful. She treats each person as the expert on their own life and looks for strengths to build on.

Background and approach

Sessions are conversational and paced to what each person needs. Esther pays attention to practical steps as well as emotional understanding. Esther has six years of professional experience.

During that time she has worked with issues such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, blended family concerns, cancer and end-of-life worries. She also supports people dealing with communication problems, isolation, guilt and shame, and the aftermath of domestic violence. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

Esther offers sessions in English and is open to working with people beyond the UK. Her approach includes Client-Centred Therapy, which shapes how she listens and responds. Booking begins by completing a short matching questionnaire and arranging sessions that fit a person's schedule.

Fees vary by location and sessions are delivered through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

Online support

Client-Centred care and online options

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on a warm, non-judgemental listening stance. The counsellor reflects what someone says and helps them find their own solutions. This approach suits people dealing with grief, anxiety, relationship stress and parenting challenges because it emphasises understanding and personal strengths.

Esther also integrates practical techniques alongside a client-centred stance to help with emotional regulation and motivation. These are applied in ways that match a person's goals, whether they want short-term coping tools or deeper emotional work. Deciding which approach to use is collaborative and tailored to the individual's needs and preferences.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat works well for shorter check-ins, and messaging suits people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and daily life while keeping treatment consistent and accessible for international clients and those in different locations.
