Lianne Flood, BACP

Lianne Flood is a counsellor who uses compassionate, person-centred care to help people make changes. She works in the United Kingdom and brings four years of professional experience to sessions. Many people come to her with anxiety, stress, low mood and relationship worries.

Lianne aims to create an open space where thoughts and feelings can be spoken about without judgement. She listens carefully and helps clients notice patterns that get in the way of what they want. Sessions are paced to suit each person, with practical ideas offered when they are helpful.

Her work includes addressing grief, trauma and intimacy-related issues alongside practical concerns like career stress and parenting strain. Lianne also supports people dealing with body image, eating-related problems and the emotional impact of attachment difficulties.

She uses approaches from Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy to shape the work. That means sessions can range from reflective conversations to practical goal-setting and behavioural experiments.

Lianne is registered with the BACP, which is noted in her credentials. Sessions are conducted in English and she does not take international clients. If someone is thinking about starting, Lianne asks them to use the site process to match and book a first meeting.

How her approaches work for online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and empathy. The counsellor creates a space where people lead the conversation and feel heard, which can help with low mood, relationship worries and self-esteem concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect. It uses simple exercises and experiments to test unhelpful thinking and try new behaviours, which can help with anxiety, stress and mood problems.

Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on small, practical steps that move a person towards their goals. It is useful when someone wants quick, concrete changes or clearer next steps in difficult situations.

Finding the right way of working is part of the process. The counsellor will discuss options and agree a plan based on each person's needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative approach means methods can be adjusted as the work progresses.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into everyday life, such as using time between commitments or avoiding travel. Practical advantages include shorter check-ins when needed and options that suit quieter or lower-bandwidth situations. Confirm the current session options and formats before booking, as specific formats are arranged through the booking process.
