Lynne Nowell, BACP

Lynne Nowell is a BACP-accredited counsellor with 17 years of experience supporting adults through a wide range of emotional and psychological challenges. She works with both men and women, offering a calm, non-judgemental space where people can explore difficulties and consider practical ways to move forward. BACP accreditation refers to recognition by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, indicating adherence to professional standards.

Lynne has extensive experience supporting people with depression and anxiety, which she recognises as central to many clients' struggles. She also works with relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, loss and grief, stress, trauma, and life transitions, tailoring her support to the concerns each person brings.

Her manner is warm and respectful, and she places importance on the therapeutic relationship as a foundation for change. Lynne aims to create an environment where clients feel genuinely heard and able to reflect at their own pace. She listens, offers supportive guidance, and helps clients make sense of their experiences so they can find clearer ways forward.

Evidence-based approaches for online support

Many of Lynne's sessions draw on structured, skills-based techniques that focus on building practical coping strategies and managing symptoms of stress, anxiety, and low mood - these approaches are designed to help people develop tools they can use between sessions.

She also uses exploratory, relationship-focused work that looks at patterns in relationships, attachment, and communication - this type of work helps people understand recurring difficulties and make different choices in close relationships and family contexts.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Lynne works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the focus over time as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility, with options for video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, to access support from home, and to maintain continuity of care with registered professionals regardless of transport or mobility constraints.
