About Lynfa
Lynfa Wharam is a psychotherapeutic counsellor with NCPS and has seven years' experience. She works with young adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationships, intimacy issues, self-esteem, depression, addictions and life changes. She also supports people with ADHD, grief, eating and parenting worries and career questions. Lynfa is based in the United Kingdom and holds experience from other sectors which inform her practice.
She draws on a range of approaches rather than one fixed method. That means sessions might include client-centred listening, cognitive techniques to shift unhelpful thoughts, mindfulness exercises to reduce reactivity, or hypnotherapy where appropriate. She also brings psychodynamic and Jungian ideas into conversations about patterns and meaning.
Her style is direct and practical. People can expect clear conversations about goals and small steps to try between sessions. She uses examples from everyday life and from her previous career to make ideas easy to apply.
Lynfa has worked in legal settings for many years before moving into counselling and hypnotherapy. During the pandemic she volunteered to support NHS and care home staff through Project5. That background shapes her focus on real-world pressures like work stress, difficult relationships and changing family roles.
She offers support for sexual health and intimacy topics as part of psychosexual therapy, including issues such as trust, communication and commitment. If you want to consider therapy for a specific concern, follow the online steps to match and schedule an initial session.
Approaches used in online sessions and how they fit into life
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. It helps people explore their thoughts and feelings at their own pace while the counsellor reflects what they hear and helps the person clarify goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings and actions. It teaches practical exercises to challenge unhelpful thinking and build new habits, which can help with anxiety, low mood and stress.
Hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation and focused attention to work with habits, cravings or strong patterns of thought. It can be offered alongside talking therapies when someone wants to try a different route to change.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify which methods suit a person’s goals and preferences. That may mean trying a few techniques and adjusting what happens in session as things progress.

Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around study, shift work or busy schedules, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can explain practical arrangements and help plan sessions that fit everyday life.
