About Lianne

Lianne Flood is a British counsellor registered with the BACP with four years of professional experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship challenges, and she lists life purpose among her areas of focus. Sessions are offered in English and aim to help people talk about what feels stuck or unclear after big life changes.

She uses practical talking therapies to help people untangle thoughts and feelings. Lianne draws on client-centred ways of working that place the person's perspective at the centre, and she also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to spot unhelpful thinking patterns. Solution-focused tools are used when people want to identify small, workable steps forward.

Lianne regularly supports people dealing with grief, trauma and issues around intimacy and body image. She also works with those navigating parenting pressures, fatherhood concerns, and family of origin problems. Her practice includes supporting some people from LGBT communities and those coping with ADHD-related challenges.

Sessions tend to focus on clear, manageable goals. Conversations aim to surface what matters now and what might reasonably change next. She talks through communication problems, commitment worries and anger in ways that break issues into small, addressable parts.

People who come after a job change, separation or health shift often want help finding direction. Lianne uses short-term techniques alongside open discussion to map options and test what works. To begin, the site booking flow asks for a short matching questionnaire before scheduling a first session.

How Lianne uses talking therapies online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what the person says so they can make sense of their own experience. It helps when someone needs to speak openly about relationships, parenting pressures or life direction. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches specific exercises to reduce anxiety, low mood or unhelpful behaviour patterns. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on identifying small, realistic steps and building on what already works for a person.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process and is worked out together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels useful, then adapt the mix of listening and practical techniques. That collaborative decision can change as sessions progress and new priorities emerge.

The original profile did not specify session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also allow someone to join a session without having to be on camera if they prefer a different medium. Registered or accredited professionals, including counsellors and therapists, often use these practical benefits to help sessions sit alongside everyday life.
