How Lynn's approaches translate to online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the heart of each session. The counsellor listens carefully, reflects what she hears and helps people identify their own goals and solutions. This approach suits issues like relationship strain and low self-esteem.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing techniques to reduce stress and emotional reactivity. It can be helpful for anxiety, anger and sleep problems by giving practical tools to use day to day.

Solution-Focused Therapy looks for small, achievable steps that move a person towards their goals. It suits people who want focused, short-term work on specific problems such as motivation or coping with life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lynn will talk with each person about what feels most helpful and adjust methods to fit goals and preferences. The process is collaborative and paced to the individual's needs.

Practical benefits of online therapy include greater flexibility to fit sessions into busy days and the ability to meet without travelling. If you need quieter surroundings, less screen time or a shorter check-in some appointments can be adapted to suit that. Confirm the current session options before booking so you know how appointments will be conducted.
