Lindsey Lucking MBACP Online Counselling
About me
In current times, you may be feeling overwhelmed with uncertainty and change. You may have questions about what the future holds for you. Perhaps you have made discoveries about yourself, or decided to explore therapy as a tool to facilitate self-help into sustained change.
You are taking the first step to understanding your personal experience and what life could be like moving forward.
Therapeutic Counselling to Improve Life Management
I've been a qualified Person Centred therapist for over 14 years. My work is governed by the ethical framework of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP).
I offer a supportive, non-judgemental, sensitive relationship to help you to make real changes in how you manage your life. My work promotes moving towards living authentically, building self-esteem and having a quieter mind.
Life’s challenges can have an ongoing impact on day to day living. Difficulties can range from dealing with uncertainty/change, anxiety, GAD, depression, isolation, relationship/family issues, work-stress, anger, abuse, neglect, PTSD or childhood incidents.
Clients are encouraged towards a healthier mindset, adopting strategies and practical skills to move forward in a sustained, positive and self-regulating way.
It’s never too late to benefit from therapy. Counselling changes lives irrespective of age, gender, sexuality, culture and diversity.

Member organisations
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
BACP is one of the UK’s largest professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy. Therapists registered with the Association fall into a number of different membership categories such as Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP and Registered Member MBACP (Accred), each standing for different levels of training and experience. MBACP (Accred) and MBACP (Snr Accred) members have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by the Association.
Registered members can be found on the BACP Register, which was the first register to achieve Accredited Voluntary Register status issued by the Professional Standards Authority. Individual Members will have completed an appropriate counselling and/or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but will not appear on the BACP Register until they've progressed to Registered Member MBACP status.
All members are bound by a Code of Ethics & Practice and a Complaints Procedure. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.

Contained, safe, talking-therapy can be the most valuable thing you invest in for yourself.
Is there something preventing you from doing what you want to do or from behaving in the way that you want?
Taking the next step to speak your truth about experiences, thoughts, feelings, and deeply held beliefs can be a game changing, reviving experience.
I look forward to hearing from you.
