Lindsay Rose , BACP

Lindsay Rose trained as a counsellor after many years teaching adults, teenagers and children. She brings four years of counselling experience and a background in education to her work. Lindsay works from a calm, non-judgemental stance and aims to keep clients in control of each session.

Her approach is flexible and practical. She listens when clients need to be heard and guides them through changing unhelpful thought patterns when they want practical tools. Sessions can be focused around a particular problem or take a broader, exploratory direction depending on the person's needs.

Lindsay often supports people coping with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, parenting strain, trauma and abuse, grief, substance issues, and eating or body image difficulties. She also works with anger, career worries, ADHD and life changes. Additional interests include attachment and abandonment issues, blended family concerns, communication and control problems, and recovery from domestic violence.

Her training in counselling and her years as an English teacher make her patient with people for whom English is a second language. That background informs her pace and the way she explains ideas so they are easy to follow.

Lindsay works in the United Kingdom and holds BACP registration. She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is used to connect clients and schedule sessions.

Therapeutic approaches for online counselling

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, often called ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them. It focuses on identifying values and taking meaningful action, which can help with anxiety, low mood and life transitions.

Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of the process. The counsellor offers empathy, acceptance and careful listening so the client can explore their experience and find their own solutions; this approach suits people needing a supportive space to make sense of things.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It teaches practical techniques to challenge unhelpful thinking and build different behaviours, which can be useful for anxiety, depression and some habit-based problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and decide together which methods match a client's goals, needs and preferences. That decision can change as therapy progresses and the focus becomes clearer.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls are close to a face-to-face meeting; phone sessions can fit into a work break or when less bandwidth is needed. Live chat and messaging let people check in more frequently or use shorter, written exchanges when that works better. Many people find these choices make it easier to keep therapy consistent around daily life.
