About John
John Lennox is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 14 years of professional experience. He works with common early-adulthood concerns such as stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and coping with life changes. He also supports people dealing with trauma, bereavement, relationship and intimacy issues, and questions around identity and sexuality including LGBT concerns.
John uses practical, evidence-informed approaches in sessions. He draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try small, achievable behaviour changes. He also uses attachment-based ideas and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current reactions.
Sessions are client-led and conversational. John aims to build clear goals together and works at a steady pace that fits the person. He explains techniques simply and practices them in-session so clients can try them between meetings.
Over the years he has worked with people facing addiction, anger, grief, work stress, body image and sexual expression concerns including kink and BDSM. He also supports those coping with caregiver stress, cancer-related issues and bereavement.
John offers help in English and accepts international clients. He asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and to schedule a first session through the online booking route. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and values, then taking small actions that matter. It can help with anxiety, low mood and feeling stuck by shifting attention from unhelpful thinking to values-led action.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) works on the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviour. It uses practical exercises and behavioural experiments to reduce avoidance and change patterns that keep problems going.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current reactions and connections. It can be useful for intimacy, communication and relationship-related difficulties.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk through options and agree a plan based on what the client wants, their goals and their preferences. This is a collaborative process, with regular review and adjustments as needed.
Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings around study, work or travel and can allow shorter check-ins or phone calls when that suits. Registered or accredited professionals often use remote sessions to reduce travel time and to fit therapy into a busy early-adulthood schedule.
