About Lynsey
Lynsey Martin is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, low mood and issues that knock confidence. Lynsey aims to make the first step into therapy easier by offering an open, non-judgemental space to talk about what matters most.
Her way of working is straightforward and practical. She listens first, then helps people spot patterns in thoughts and behaviour that keep problems going.
Background and approach
Conversations often focus on small, achievable changes that make daily life feel more manageable. Lynsey uses a blend of approaches to match each person’s needs. She draws on client-centred methods to make people feel heard, cognitive behavioural ideas to address unhelpful thinking, and narrative techniques to help rewrite personal stories.
She also includes mindfulness and psychodynamic ideas when they fit the client’s goals. She has experience supporting a broad range of concerns, including relationship strain, parenting pressures, ADHD, addiction, trauma and body image. Lynsey keeps work practical, with clear goals and regular reviews so progress is visible.
If you are unsure whether therapy is right, she focuses on building trust and practical steps first. To begin, follow the Start Therapy flow and complete the short matching questionnaire to arrange sessions according to availability.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The therapist stays curious about your experience and reflects it back so you feel heard. This approach helps when someone needs acceptance and a place to talk through hard feelings.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact. Sessions often include practical exercises and tools to challenge unhelpful thinking and try new behaviours. This can be useful for anxiety, stress and low mood.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that fit your needs, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. Decisions about style and pace are collaborative and reviewed over time.
Please check which online session formats are currently offered before you book, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by removing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a break. It can also let people use methods like worksheets or mindfulness practice between sessions. Ask about session length and how best to work together when you complete the matching questionnaire.
