Jenny Lyons, BACP

Jenny Lyons is a counsellor and psychotherapist who trained in the UK and holds BACP registration. She has four years of professional experience and helps people facing stress, anxiety, low mood and major life changes. Jenny aims to make the first step toward support feel manageable and straightforward for anyone feeling overwhelmed.

She holds a first degree in Psychology, a Masters in Healthy Psychology, and a Level 6 Diploma in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy. Jenny uses that background to offer practical, down-to-earth support rather than jargon or complicated techniques. Sessions focus on what the person needs now and what they want to change.

Her work covers common concerns such as grief, relationship strain, self-esteem, and trauma. She also supports people dealing with physical health challenges, chronic pain and caregiver stress, and those navigating career or life transitions. Practical coping skills and clearer thinking are often part of the work.

Jenny draws on several therapeutic approaches to suit different needs, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and client-centred methods. She aims to create an open, non-judgemental space where thoughts and feelings can be talked through honestly.

People who prefer a collaborative, steady style tend to find her approach helpful. Jenny encourages small, achievable steps and focuses on what can change in daily life. She supports clients to build on strengths while working through setbacks.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings while committing to values-based actions. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and coping with long-term health challenges. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviours to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. It often helps with anxiety, depression and sleep problems.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist will work together with the client to decide what methods suit their goals, preferences and practical needs. That collaboration means plans can change as progress is made or new priorities emerge.

The biography does not list which online session formats are offered, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people take part when managing chronic illness or caregiving duties without rearranging a full day. Registered and accredited professionals aim to adapt exercises and worksheets so they work well in remote sessions.
