About Lianne

Lianne Flood is a BACP-registered counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship tensions, LGBT-related concerns and family conflicts. Lianne aims to make talking about difficult feelings straightforward and direct.

Her approach draws on client-centred methods that focus on what the person brings to each session. Lianne also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to help spot patterns of thinking that add to worry, and solution-focused work to set small, practical steps. Sessions tend to look at what is happening now and what can be tried next.

Lianne commonly supports people dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, eating and body-image concerns, and issues around intimacy and attachment. She also works with people experiencing workplace stress, career uncertainty, and the effects of family of origin problems. Her additional interests include abandonment, dissociation, and matters connected to kink and BDSM culture.

Practical topics such as parenting strains, fatherhood issues, separation and divorce, and difficulties with communication are also on her list. She uses brief interventions when helpful, alongside longer conversations when more processing is needed. The emphasis is on clear, achievable steps rather than abstract theory.

Sessions are conducted in English. Lianne does not accept international clients at this time. Costs vary by location and she uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To start, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening to what matters to the person and responding without judgement. Online sessions using this approach give space for people to set the pace and topics they want to explore, which can suit those sorting identity, relationships or family issues.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps identify thinking patterns that keep problems active and tests small behavioural changes. Delivered remotely it can include short tasks between sessions and clear, written summaries to practise new habits for stress, anxiety or low mood.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on practical steps and small goals. In an online context this often means setting one or two simple actions to try between meetings and reviewing what changed at the next session.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods to try based on goals, preferences and what is actually helping. That choice can change over time as issues shift and new priorities appear.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around study, work and childcare, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Registered and accredited professionals often use online sessions to maintain continuity of care when life gets busy.
