About Lynne

Lynne Nowell is a BACP counsellor who supports adults facing stress, anxiety and depression. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk through what is worrying them and find practical ways to move forward. Her manner is warm and respectful, and she works at the client’s pace to build trust and clarity.

With 17 years of experience, Lynne has helped people with relationship strains and low self-esteem. She also supports those dealing with loss, grief and major life changes. Many clients come with overlapping problems, and she aims to address the whole situation rather than single symptoms.

Lynne works with a wide range of additional concerns, including body image, attachment matters, communication difficulties, chronic illness and caregiver stress. She has experience with ageing and geriatric issues, autism and Asperger Syndrome, and personality-related challenges such as avoidant or antisocial traits.

Her approach is tailored to each person. Sessions focus on listening, making sense of patterns, and trying out small changes that fit everyday life. She values clear, practical steps alongside emotional support.

Clients are guided to notice what helps and what does not, and to build skills for managing difficult moments. The aim is to increase confidence, reduce unhelpful worrying, and support better relationships and decision-making over time.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Lynne works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on talking, understanding and making practical changes. One common approach she uses involves helping people identify unhelpful thought patterns and try different ways of thinking and behaving to reduce worry and low mood. This can be useful for anxiety, depression and stress.

Another strand of her work focuses on relationships and attachment. She helps people notice how past experiences shape current reactions, and then practices new ways of relating and communicating to improve connection and reduce conflict.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lynne will discuss options with each person and decide together what feels most helpful based on needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and can change as progress is made.

Session formats were not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow conversations to happen from familiar surroundings. It can also allow shorter check-ins that suit a lunch break or quieter phone conversations when video is not needed.
