About John

John Lennox is a counsellor with 14 years of experience who helps people with stress, anxiety, depression and trauma. He also supports those dealing with self-esteem, grief, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related issues. He works with concerns that overlap with parenting, career strain and LGBTQ matters and can help with eating and sleeping difficulties.

He begins by listening to what matters most to the person in the room. Sessions focus on practical steps and small changes people can try between meetings. He uses straightforward language and aims to make therapy feel manageable for someone who is already overwhelmed.

John draws on approaches such as cognitive behavioural therapy and client-centred work to shape sessions. He pays attention to attachment patterns and emotional responses when those feel relevant. This mix lets him tailor the way he works to each person's goals and situation.

John is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and practises in the United Kingdom. He offers sessions in English and accepts international clients when online work is appropriate.

People can expect a collaborative style where goals are set together. He aims to help people build coping skills, manage day-to-day stress, and make clearer choices about relationships, work and personal wellbeing.

How John’s approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and make room for valued actions. It is useful when worry, low mood or life changes are blocking forward movement. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and offers practical tools to change patterns that cause distress. It can help with anxiety, depression and sleeping or eating difficulties. Emotionally-Focused Therapy, EFT, focuses on emotions and attachment patterns to improve how people relate, making it relevant for relationship and intimacy-related concerns.

Finding the right approach is treated as a joint task. The therapist and client talk about goals and try methods that fit the person’s needs and preferences. Over time they adjust techniques based on what works, aiming for clear, achievable steps rather than complex theory.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a busy day. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins or times when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to keep therapy going around work, family and travel commitments.
