About Lynne

Lynne Mollison combines clinical healthcare experience with counselling to support people facing stress, anxiety and life changes. She trained and worked in nursing within neuroscience and intensive therapy care and later spent years in mental health roles connected to the pharmaceutical industry and the NHS. Lynne uses that varied background to offer straightforward, practical help for everyday struggles.

She sees adults and younger people in independent practice and also provides workplace and student support.

Background and approach

Her work has included school counselling across whole-school programmes, which involved supporting staff and helping pupils and their families where appropriate. This background means she is used to helping people make sense of difficulties rooted in earlier life experiences.

In sessions Lynne aims to create a calm space to talk through problems such as trauma, depression, relationship strain, grief, sleep trouble and low self-esteem. Conversations focus on understanding what is happening now and finding steps that feel manageable. She uses a range of approaches rather than a single method, adapting them to each person’s needs.

Sessions are practical and conversational. Lynne helps people identify resources they already have and build new coping strategies. Her goal is to support clearer thinking and small changes that make everyday life easier.

She holds BACP and NCPS credentials and has six years of counselling experience in varied settings. Lynne practices from the United Kingdom and conducts work with people in English.

Approaches for online work and what to expect

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The counsellor reflects what you say and helps you find your own solutions, which can help with anxiety, low self-esteem and relationship concerns. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy or CBT looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and helps people test and change unhelpful thinking patterns; it is often used for anxiety, stress and sleep problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels comfortable. Together you decide whether to emphasise a talking, reflective approach or more structured CBT-style tasks, and this can change as you progress.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let you have a full conversation and visual cues while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to use a camera. Live chat and text-based messaging support shorter check-ins, written reflection and scheduling that fits around work or family time. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent and to try different ways of working until you find what helps.
