Stella Dyer

Based in Headingley LS6 and online

Student Counsellor

In 2016, my family went through some difficult times with mental health. As things began to improve in 2020, I became interested in how counselling can support not just individuals, but families too. That autumn, I started training in person-centred counselling.

I’m now in my final year of training and gaining experience through volunteer placements. I offer one-to-one counselling, either face-to-face at HEART in Headingley or online, through Free Your Mind Counselling.

I’m fully insured and hold a current DBS certificate. I’m also a student member of BACP and NCPS, and I follow their ethical guidelines to ensure your safety and confidentiality.

I also have a qualification in Children and Young People’s Mental Health. While I don’t work with under-18s, this knowledge helps me support carers, and people exploring how their own childhood experiences affect them today. I’ve also completed training in suicide awareness, gender identity, supporting men and boys, and neurodiversity.

I believe that you are the expert in your own life. My role is to create a safe, non-judgemental space where you can talk things through at your own pace. Together, we can explore what’s going on for you and help you find your own way forward.
