About Lianne

Lianne Flood is a counsellor who uses a client-centred approach to help people feel heard and understood. She creates a calm space where clients can talk about what matters to them. Lianne focuses on helping people cope with stress, anxiety, depression and relationship or family concerns.

Her style is straightforward and warm. Sessions are a chance to sort through difficult feelings and find workable next steps. She also supports people dealing with grief, trauma and issues around intimacy and body image.

Lianne draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to spot patterns that keep people stuck. She uses solution-focused techniques to help set small, clear goals and notice practical progress. Across sessions she aims to combine listening with useful tools people can try between meetings.

She has four years of professional experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That registration is shown as BACP in her credentials and reflects her professional standing in the United Kingdom.

People come to Lianne for a wide range of concerns including LGBT matters, parenting and fatherhood issues, eating and food-related problems, anger and self-esteem struggles, ADHD and workplace stress. She also works with matters such as abandonment, attachment, communication problems and recovery from domestic violence or separation.

How client-centred care and brief therapies work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on understanding each person's experience and responding with acceptance and respect. It is about talking through concerns at a comfortable pace while the counsellor reflects back what they hear to help clients make sense of things.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviours can keep problems going and offers practical strategies to try. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood, stress and coping with change. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, achievable steps and on what is already working, which helps people make steady progress without getting stuck on the past.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work itself. The counsellor will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and together you will decide which methods to try. That collaborative process helps keep sessions relevant and focused on practical change.

Session arrangements are not detailed in the original biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit meetings around work, childcare and daily life, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals often adapt activities so they work well over distance and help clients practise new skills between meetings.
