Why Work With Stella?
"I wish you could cut me open and see the light and warmth that’s been switched on in me and because of you. You have given so much Stella. So so much. You are a gift."
Stella Dove's point of focus is Emotional Resilience and Recalibration
Welcome
Welcome.
I am Stella Dove, a trauma-informed clinical hypnotherapist and EMDR psychotherapist based in London.
I have spoken at the House of Lords and the European Parliament — but the most important thing I bring to this work isn’t credentials. It’s lived experience.
I know what it feels like to be on an impossible road — when peace feels too far, and healing feels like it belongs to everyone else but you.
That voice that says, “It might work for others, but not for me. I’m too broken.”
I’ve heard it too. I’ve lived it.
Read here about what I did a few years ago
You are not broken. You are becoming.
You do not have to carry this alone.
My work is grounded in clinical study, developed through practice, and inspired not just through my own lived experience, but by the experiences of those I've been honoured to work with.
I have lived the long nights, the impossible choices, the silence after the breakdown. I know what it means to rebuild from nothing — to sit with shame, regret, and self-abandonment — and still choose to reignite the inner spark.

A Journey Back to Self
Many years ago, I realised something had to change.
That quiet knowing marked the beginning of my long return — to truth, to presence, to myself. I immersed in every book, training and method I could find, within the limits of time, energy and survival.
And I haven’t stopped.
Now I understand it wasn't just something. It was everything.
I continue to learn not to be better — but to be braver, deeper, clearer — so I can hold space for others with the compassion I once needed most.
Coming this far doesn’t mean I no longer suffer. But now, the path is illuminated.
There is no more endless rumination or second-guessing, no more spirals of overthinking and regret. Thoughts come and go. Emotions rise and move through.
I feel more deeply — not because I’m overwhelmed, but because I am equipped.
I no longer fear discomfort. I face it.
And with each moment, I meet myself with clarity, knowing exactly what is right for me.

My Primary Offering
My signature work is Emotional Recalibration Therapy — a six-week container for deep inner work. It begins with one immersive day, followed by integration sessions and ongoing gentle support.
We start with a discovery call: an honest, spacious conversation about what aches within you and what you long to reclaim.
If you’re unsure what you need, we will find clarity together.
If you’re ready to begin, we will shape the journey around you.
I don’t follow a formula. My approach is:
-
Courageous
-
Compassionate
-
Radically attuned to who you truly are, beneath the ache.

“This lady has an extraordinary ability. I would guess that there’s not one person reading this who can say their life is perfect in every way, and that there is no area that could do with improvement.
Anyone who has a chance to benefit from Stella’s perceptive coaching should do so while they can.”
