About Stylianos

Stylianos "Stel" Papastratis is a seasoned mental health practitioner credentialed in Australia with more than 21 years of professional experience. He has worked across non-profit organisations, government settings and private clinics, supporting a diverse range of people in Australia, the UK and continental Europe. His practice focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, and bipolar disorder, and he has experience working with clients who have mild intellectual and psychosocial disabilities.

He combines professional training with years of direct clinical work to create a collaborative, respectful space where clients can explore their thoughts and emotions without fear of judgment. He holds an ACA credential and additional qualifications in psychological sciences and counselling. He prioritizes clients' mental health and overall well-being and supports people through practical strategies and empathetic listening. Taking the first step toward greater wellbeing often requires courage, and he aims to guide and support clients through that process, helping them identify goals, develop coping skills, and build more fulfilling relationships and daily routines.

Fluent in English and Greek, he accepts new clients in Australia and offers a range of session formats to fit individual needs and circumstances.

Evidence-Informed Approaches and Flexible Online Care

He commonly uses cognitive and behavioral strategies that help people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical techniques to reduce anxiety, manage low mood, and improve daily functioning. These approaches focus on skills such as problem solving, behavioural experiments and activity scheduling to support symptom relief and resilience.

He also employs attachment-informed and emotion-focused work that helps clients explore relationship patterns, attachment concerns and difficult emotions such as complicated grief or abandonment fears. This style of therapy emphasizes understanding relational histories and building healthier ways of connecting with others.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the journey. He works collaboratively with each person to tailor methods to their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting techniques as progress is made.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, over the phone, via live chat or through text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, access care from different locations within Australia, and continue work between appointments, while still receiving consistent support from a licensed professional.
