About Lily
Lily Earle is a psychotherapist with 15 years' experience. She draws on practical talking therapies to help people manage stress and anxiety and to cope with big life changes. Her approach is warm and non-judgemental and aims to make it easier to think clearly and take small steps forward.
She works in a collaborative way, tailoring sessions to what each person needs. That might mean focusing on how thoughts and behaviours interact or helping someone notice what matters most to them.
Background and approach
Sessions are practical and paced to suit the individual rather than following a fixed script. Lily uses a mix of approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Client-Centred work. She also draws on existential and mindfulness ideas when these fit a person's situation.
This flexible blend helps with issues such as grief, low self-esteem, addiction, trauma, sleep problems and relationship concerns. People often come wanting help with anxiety, depression, coping after loss, career stress or difficulties with self-image. Lily aims to help people untangle complex, multi-layered problems one step at a time.
She supports clients to set clear goals and to reflect on small changes that build momentum. Her background includes teaching and supervision on a counselling degree and practice across public, charitable and personal settings. Lily is a member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients.
How her approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts without getting caught up in them and focus on actions that match their values; it can be useful for anxiety, low mood and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it often helps with anxiety, sleep and low mood. Client-Centred Therapy offers a supportive, non-judgemental space where the counsellor follows the person's lead and reflects their experience back to them to build clarity and confidence.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about aims, preferences and what feels most helpful, then adapt methods together. Therapy is a cooperative process with decisions made step by step so the approach can change as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, which gives flexibility for different days and routines. Video calls are useful for fuller conversation and visual connection, phone sessions can be easier when internet bandwidth is limited, and text or chat options allow shorter check-ins or ongoing reflection between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel and to continue work even when life is busy.
