Lynsey Adams , BACP

Lynsey Adams offers integrative counselling that adapts techniques from several therapeutic approaches to meet each person’s individual needs. She trained, completed the required examinations and supervised practice, and is registered with the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) - the professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the United Kingdom. Her practice combines different methods so care is tailored rather than one-size-fits-all.

Her integrative work addresses a broad range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, addictions, bereavement and low self-esteem. By blending elements from complementary approaches, she helps clients explore current symptoms as well as the personal patterns that influence day-to-day life.

Depending on what feels most helpful, Lynsey may draw on person-centred principles that prioritise the client’s perspective and personal growth, psychodynamic ideas that bring underlying feelings and past experiences into awareness, and practical cognitive-behavioural strategies to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. This flexible framework allows therapy to shift as needs evolve, combining reflective exploration with hands-on tools when appropriate.

Integrative approaches available through online therapy

Client-centred therapy focuses on the client’s own experience and personal resources, offering a supportive space where the therapist follows the client’s lead to promote self-understanding and personal growth. It is often helpful for issues like low self-esteem, life transitions and relationship concerns.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the connections between thoughts, feelings and behaviours, offering practical strategies to challenge unhelpful patterns and develop new coping skills. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression and addictive behaviours and can include activities such as thought records and behavioural experiments.

Psychodynamic therapy explores how past experiences and unconscious patterns influence present-day responses, helping clients recognise recurring themes and develop new ways of relating to themselves and others. Lynsey Adams works collaboratively with clients to determine which approaches suit their goals and preferences, adjusting the mix of techniques as therapy progresses. Licensed professionals can deliver effective care through remote formats, and online sessions offer practical flexibility - clients can meet by video call, speak by phone, or use live chat and text-based messaging to fit therapy into busy lives while maintaining continuity of care.
