Background and approach

She holds BACP, which denotes registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. That background guides how she shapes sessions and the professional standards she follows. Her approach is practical and collaborative.

Sessions focus on what feels most important to the client right now. Conversations are tailored so people can try new ways of coping between meetings and bring back what worked. She draws on a mix of methods including cognitive behavioural techniques, mindfulness practices and acceptance-based strategies.

Lynne also uses client-centred and solution-focused ways of working to keep discussions grounded and goal oriented. People who come to her often want straightforward tools for dealing with panic, overwhelming thoughts or painful life events. Lynne supports clients in developing clearer values, managing difficult emotions and taking small steps toward change.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions that suit their circumstances. Lynne offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to fit different routines and needs.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and reconnect with what matters to them. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes because it focuses on taking small committed actions in everyday life. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to change patterns of thinking and behaviour that keep problems going. It often helps with panic, persistent worry and low mood by teaching ways to test thoughts and try new behaviours. Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of sessions, using listening and reflection so clients feel heard and can discover their own solutions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk about different ways of working and make choices together based on the client’s goals and preferences. That collaborative process can change over time as needs evolve.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls let people use visual cues and a longer conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quieter spoken check-in is preferred. Live chat and text messaging work well for shorter updates, reflective notes or when someone wants to avoid being on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel while still using ACT, CBT and client-centred methods in everyday life.
