About Estar
Estar Wells offers a warm, person-focused approach that aims to help people manage stress, anxiety and life transitions. She uses clear, practical conversations to support people feeling low, overwhelmed or unsure about relationships and self-worth. Estar introduces simple steps and listening that help people make changes they can live with.
Estar draws on attachment-based ideas and cognitive behavioural tools to make sessions feel both safe and practical. She adapts her way of working to each person’s needs, sometimes using structured exercises for short-term goals and sometimes taking a gentler, exploratory route.
Background and approach
The goal is always to find what helps you move forward. Her practice covers a wide range of concerns, including depression, grief, addictions and trauma and abuse. She also helps people with intimacy-related issues, body image, eating and sleeping problems, career stress and compassion fatigue.

She works with people across the United Kingdom and accepts international clients, offering sessions in English. Sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.

Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact. In online sessions this often means practising small exercises between meetings, trying different ways of responding to stress, and reviewing what changed over the week.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will help you decide together which methods fit your goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process that can change as you learn what helps most.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different schedules and needs. Video calls let you use visual cues and work in real time, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can be easier for short check-ins or practising tasks between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, travel or family commitments while keeping continuity of care.
