About Lynne

Lynne Nowell is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with 17 years of experience working with adults. She sees people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, low self-esteem and depression. Lynne helps clients talk through difficulties and find practical ways to move forward.

She works with people experiencing loss and grief, major life change and the pressure that often comes with early adulthood choices. Her background includes supporting those coping with trauma, long-term illness and caregiver strain. Lynne also addresses attachment and abandonment concerns, body image, communication problems and the effects of divorce and separation.

Lynne uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to focus conversations and identify manageable steps. Sessions aim to clarify what matters right now, spot patterns that get in the way, and try new ways of responding. She keeps the work straightforward and centred on everyday problems and goals.

Over the years Lynne has supported people facing a wide spread of issues, from chronic pain and cancer-related stress to challenges linked to autism and personality difficulties. Her experience helps her recognise when a particular issue needs a different pace or focus.

People who meet her can expect a direct, respectful approach. She listens, asks practical questions, and helps people test small changes between sessions. The aim is clearer thinking and more manageable next steps.

Approaches used and how online sessions work

Two evidence-based approaches Lynne draws on are cognitive techniques and relationship-focused work. Cognitive techniques help people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try different responses, which can reduce anxiety and lift mood. Relationship-focused work looks at how patterns of communication and attachment affect current relationships and helps people practise clearer ways of relating.

She also uses practical problem-solving methods to break large problems into smaller steps. This approach suits people who want concrete actions to test between sessions, for example with stress, work-related pressure or coping with illness.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lynne will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and together you will choose which methods to try. That choice can change as therapy progresses, and the therapist and client review what helps most.
