Jenny Lyons

Jenny Lyons is a counsellor and psychotherapist practising in the United Kingdom. She holds a first degree in Psychology, a Masters in Health Psychology, and a Level 6 Diploma in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy. Jenny is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and brings four years of professional experience to her work.

She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports those coping with grief, relationship difficulties, trauma and life transitions. Practical everyday problems such as sleep, eating concerns, addictions and challenges at work are also within her remit.

Jenny’s way of working is straightforward and person-centred. She creates an open space where people can talk through thoughts and feelings without fear of judgement. Sessions aim to identify patterns that are causing difficulty and to try small, manageable changes between meetings.

Her approach draws on a range of psychological methods including cognitive behavioural ideas, acceptance and commitment perspectives, attachment-informed thinking and skills from dialectical behaviour therapy. These are used flexibly to match what each person needs in the moment.

Clients often come to her for help with specific problems such as ADHD-related struggles, bereavement, body image and family difficulties. Jenny explains options clearly and works collaboratively to agree practical steps and longer term goals.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, low mood and finding direction after life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and uses small, practical exercises to test and change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships shape current ways of connecting and can be useful for relationship and intimacy concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and choices can be changed as the work progresses.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy around daily life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some people prefer to meet by video for face-to-face conversation, while others choose phone sessions when bandwidth is limited or they want a quicker session. Therapists who are registered or accredited often help clients figure out the best practical setup for ongoing work.
