About Lily

Lily Llewellyn works with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns using person-centred and emotionally focused ideas. She describes her approach as helping people gain understanding and more control over their emotions. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has five years of experience.

Lily uses Client-Centred Therapy to listen and respond to what each person brings. She combines this with Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at how feelings and attachment shape relationships. She also draws on Existential Therapy to help people reflect on meaning and choices when life feels difficult.

Her clinical work covers a wide range of concerns. These include grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, eating and sleeping difficulties, and mood problems such as depression and bipolar. She also focuses on intimacy-related issues, communication and commitment problems, and body image and self-esteem.

Lily has worked with people dealing with parenting stresses, blended family issues, fatherhood concerns and family of origin problems. She also supports those facing workplace strain, compassion fatigue and career questions. She lists LGBT issues, ADHD, anger and codependency among her areas of experience.

She trained in counselling after studying anthropology and has undertaken postgraduate person-centred training at Aberdeen University. Her background includes volunteering roles, school counselling and running a private practice. She also has experience teaching English and working abroad, which she says exposed her to different ways of living.

How her therapeutic approaches work for online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what the person brings. The counsellor aims to reflect back feelings and help the person feel understood, which can help with low self-esteem, relationship concerns and general distress.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and the underlying emotions that drive them. It is useful for people who want to understand attachment, intimacy issues and recurring conflict in relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Lily will discuss goals and preferences and help decide which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and can change as needs develop.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to continue work while travelling or living abroad, since she accepts international clients.
