Dr Stella Duffy

Stella is a UKCP and BACP registered therapist with a doctorate in Existential Psychotherapy. Her doctoral research was in the embodied experience of postmenopause and she has a special interest in supporting people through major life transitions such as illness, in/fertility, menopause, and bereavement.

Her existential training means that while she is happy to work with a variety of issues, she is particularly interested in working with you to consider your choices, your responsibility for your own life, and how you might choose to live that life in the wider context of the people around you.

Stella worked in the arts for many years as a writer and theatre-maker, supporting community-based creativity and engagement. A great deal of her work has been around inclusion and equalities, in wider terms and in LGBTQ+ issues. She has a passionate belief in both the creativity of every person and the value of supporting people to explore their own creative approaches to life’s dilemmas.

As a qualified yoga teacher and Focusing practitioner, she is interested in embodied approaches to therapeutic work, which she personally found useful in her recoveries from cancers and in living with the experience and effects of early medical menopause. Stella offers individual, relationship, and group therapy.
