Lindsey Wheeler , BACP

Lindsey Wheeler is a counsellor with a decade of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation and has spent many years supporting adults with relationship and personal life challenges. Lindsey is known for working with people affected by ADHD and for helping those caught in difficult relationship dynamics such as narcissism and scapegoating.

She has practical experience from roles supporting people in therapeutic community settings and previous work in custodial environments. That background shaped her direct, steady approach when conversations become difficult or painful. Lindsey uses straightforward language and clear goals in sessions so clients know what to expect.

Clients often come with relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, addictions, or problems with intimacy and communication. Lindsey also helps people facing sleeping and eating difficulties, anger, career setbacks, bipolar mood concerns, chronic illness, caregiver stress, and a range of attachment or personality-related issues.

Her way of working mixes acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-based thinking, client-centred listening, trauma-focused methods, and psychodynamic reflections. Sessions aim to identify what matters to the person, uncover patterns that hold them back, and practise steps that fit their life.

She offers flexible online formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. Lindsey welcomes people from the UK and internationally and works collaboratively to set goals and the pace of therapy.

How Lindsey's Approaches Work Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify their values and take small steps toward a life that matters to them rather than getting stuck fighting difficult thoughts. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at important relationships and how early patterns affect current connections, which can help with intimacy and trust issues. EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing, is a trauma-focused method used to process distressing memories so they hold less power over daily life.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Lindsey will discuss options and tailor the plan to each person's goals, preferences and the issues they bring. Decisions about methods and pace are collaborative and reviewed as therapy progresses.

Online therapy lets people fit sessions around life. Video calls are useful for fuller conversation and visual connection. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging suit short check-ins, quick reflections between sessions, or people who find typing easier than speaking. These formats make it practical to keep therapy going from different places and schedules while working on the same therapeutic aims.
