Lynne Sturges, BACP

Lynne Sturges is a UK-credentialed therapist with three years of professional experience and holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She works with people facing stress and anxiety, grief and loss, depression, and challenges that come with major life changes, offering practical support and emotional understanding.

Lynne also supports couples who want to address relationship difficulties and helps clients process trauma, abuse, and parenting concerns.

In sessions she aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored honestly. Lynne approaches the first steps toward greater wellbeing with sensitivity, acknowledging that seeking help takes courage, and she partners with clients to build clearer coping strategies and move toward a more fulfilling life.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Flexible Online Support

Lynne works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to common concerns such as stress, anxiety, grief, and relationship difficulties. One approach focuses on building practical coping skills and emotional regulation - helping clients identify unhelpful patterns, learn new strategies to manage symptoms, and apply those skills in daily life. Another area of work concentrates on processing loss and difficult emotions in a paced, supportive way so individuals can adjust to change and restore a sense of balance. She also offers relationship-focused support that helps couples and partners improve communication, resolve recurring conflicts, and rebuild connection.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Lynne treats this as a collaborative conversation. She will work with each client to understand their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapt techniques to fit what feels most helpful for them.

Online therapy with Lynne is available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering practical flexibility for busy schedules or mobility limitations. These options make it easier to access regular sessions, maintain continuity of care, and receive support from familiar surroundings while working toward personal goals.
