About Stina
Stina Boro is an ACA counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief and phobias. She works with issues such as relationship problems, trauma and abuse, low self‑esteem, addictions and sleep or eating difficulties. Her approach is practical and grounded, aimed at helping people manage day‑to‑day life and rebuild a sense of control.
Stina uses clear, person‑centred methods in sessions. She draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to spot unhelpful thinking patterns.
Background and approach
She also uses acceptance and commitment techniques to help people make values‑based choices when feelings feel overwhelming. Sessions are collaborative. The therapist listens, reflects, and helps people try small, doable steps between meetings.
Work might include breathing exercises, grounding tasks, behavioural experiments, or talking through relationship patterns and communication problems. Stina has eight years of experience supporting a wide range of concerns. She has particular focus on matters such as attachment issues, ADHD, body image, caregiver stress, and issues connected to adoption and foster care.
She also provides support around intimacy, kink and alternative sex culture, and complex co‑occurring problems. People meet Stina by choosing an online session format that suits them. She provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat and ongoing text messaging.
Practical planning for sessions and simple tools are central to her work, so people can use what they learn in everyday life.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing painful thoughts and feelings without letting them drive behaviour, then choosing actions that match a person’s values. It is often used for anxiety, phobias and stress. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thinking and try behavioural experiments to test new ways of coping; it is practical for fears, sleep problems and mood. Attachment‑Based Therapy looks at how early patterns of relating affect current relationships and helps people change communication and trust patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, preferences and what feels manageable. Together they decide whether ACT, CBT or attachment work - or a mix - best fits the presenting concerns and day‑to‑day life demands.
Online therapy here uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging to make care more flexible. Video lets people use visual cues and role‑play communication tasks. Phone calls are useful when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check‑in. Live chat and text are helpful for ongoing support, quick tools between sessions, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options help people fit sessions around work, caregiving and travel while keeping the focus on practical skills and step‑by‑step progress.
