About Lynn
Lynn Bailey is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 11 years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, bereavement and loss, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, motivation struggles and anger. Lynn accepts international clients and uses a straightforward approach that focuses on what the person brings to each session.
She treats each person as the expert on their own life. Sessions centre on listening, practical reflection and building on existing strengths. Lynn avoids jargon and offers clear steps to try between meetings rather than long theoretical explanations.
Her way of working draws on client-centred principles and solution-focused strategies. That means time is spent on what is working, and on small, achievable changes to everyday routines and reactions. Mindfulness techniques are introduced where they help with stress, sleep and managing intense feelings.
Lynn has experience supporting people after domestic violence and with bereavement, adoption and foster care issues, and a range of relationship concerns. She also works with people dealing with addiction-related issues, compassion fatigue and challenges linked to attachment or neurodiversity.
Sessions are practical and down-to-earth. Expect short-term goals alongside space to talk through painful events. Lynn asks about what a workable next step looks like and helps plan it, checking in on progress at later appointments.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. Online sessions using this approach give time to tell your story and have it heard back clearly, which helps when working through anger or relationship issues.Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, practical steps and measurable changes. In remote sessions this can mean setting short goals between appointments and reviewing progress each week or month. Mindfulness Therapy introduces simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve sleep, offered as brief exercises to use during daily routines.
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods and adjust as needed. Finding what helps most often happens over the first few sessions rather than being decided up front.
Confirm the current session formats before booking so you know what is offered. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited and remove travel time. Ask about what to expect in your first remote meeting and how to prepare for practical exercises between sessions.
