About Stanley
Stanley Okafor BACP is a psychotherapist and counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 15 years of clinical experience. He works mainly with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, addictions and relationship concerns. His stated methods include Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Client-Centred approaches, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Mindfulness and Solution-Focused work.
Stanley sees individual adults for one-to-one psychotherapy. He has worked across private practice, forensic services and with an NHS Trust, and he runs an anger management group in forensic settings. Sessions begin with a clinical assessment that looks at presenting problems, goals and any risk factors.
He says he uses CBT as the primary model while drawing on other approaches where they help. That can mean working on thoughts and behaviours, exploring emotions in relationships, or using short practical strategies to manage stress. Mindfulness exercises are also offered to support coping with anxiety and low mood.
Stanley describes his work as collaborative. He aims to build rapport and a straightforward working relationship to clarify problems and set achievable goals. He assesses progress and adapts methods to what the person finds most helpful.

How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions
Client-Centred work focuses on listening and building a straightforward therapeutic relationship. Online sessions using this approach will centre the person’s concerns and the therapist will reflect and clarify what matters most to them.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. Online CBT often involves short between-session tasks, thought records or behavioural experiments that can fit into daily life.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people map and work with key emotions in close relationships. When used online it can direct conversation toward emotional patterns and help a person notice and name their responses during the session.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and suggest methods that match the person’s needs. This is a collaborative process and methods can be adjusted as therapy progresses.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Many people choose remote sessions to fit therapy around work, family or travel. Remote work can make it easier to keep brief check-ins, do homework tasks between sessions, or meet without needing to travel, depending on the confirmed formats offered.
