About Lindsay
Lindsay Rose trained as a counsellor after many years teaching adults, teenagers and children. She moved into counselling because she saw how a lack of mental health support affected people she worked with. Lindsay believes counselling can help heal old wounds and change how people view themselves and their lives.
She works in a warm, non-judgemental way and keeps the client in control of each session. Her practical approach blends a few methods to match what a person needs.
Background and approach
Lindsay uses cognitive behavioural techniques to spot and change unhelpful thinking. She also draws on person-centred principles to listen and reflect, and on mindfulness ideas to build present-moment awareness. People come with many concerns including stress, anxiety, phobias, trauma and depression.
Lindsay also supports those facing relationship strain, parenting challenges, addiction issues and difficulties with self-esteem and body image. She is familiar with attachment and abandonment themes, and with the effects of family breakdown and blended family dynamics. Lindsay’s background as an English teacher helps when clients are using English as a second language.
She is patient and gives people space to find words. Sessions can focus on talking, learning practical coping skills, or working toward a specific change. She has four years of counselling experience and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
Lindsay works from the United Kingdom and offers several online session formats to suit different needs.
How Lindsay’s approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and to act in line with their values. It focuses on small steps that build a more meaningful life rather than on eliminating every difficult thought. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, CBT, helps identify patterns of thinking and behaviour that keep problems going and teaches practical techniques to change them. These skills can be practiced between sessions to reduce anxiety or phobic responses. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises the therapist’s warm, non-judgemental listening and supports people to find their own solutions at their own pace.Choosing the right approach is usually collaborative. Lindsay will discuss goals and preferences with each person and adapt methods as work progresses. Together they decide whether to focus on skill-building, deeper reflection, or a mix of both, and they adjust the plan as needed.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone appointments, live chat or text messaging to suit different needs. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when internet bandwidth is low or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text work well for shorter check-ins or when pacing the conversation over time. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, childcare and other commitments, while allowing the same therapeutic approaches to be used in each format.
