About Lianne
Lianne Flood is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain and LGBT-related concerns, and also supports those dealing with family conflict and loss.
She aims for straightforward, one-to-one work. Sessions are a place to talk through difficult feelings without judgement. Lianne pays attention to how day-to-day pressures, family history and identity shape what someone feels guilty or ashamed about.
Her approach draws on client-centred listening, cognitive behavioural ideas and solution-focused techniques. That means conversations often begin by noting what matters most now, then testing small ways of thinking or acting differently. She uses practical steps alongside reflective listening.
Lianne also helps people with intimacy-related worries, eating and body-image struggles, ADHD-related challenges, and issues linked to attachment or abandonment. She can talk through communication problems, boundaries, commitment doubts and recovery from separation or domestic harm.
Sessions aim to be practical and focused. Lianne will often work with a clear goal for a few weeks, then review progress. This can suit someone who wants a mix of talking and concrete strategies for handling guilt, shame or repeated patterns of thought.
To begin, she asks clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Fees vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
Therapeutic approaches used for online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and helping the client lead the conversation. It suits people who need space to name feelings about guilt, shame or identity without being told what to do. CBT or Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers small, practical experiments to test unhelpful beliefs. It can help when guilt or shame shows up as repetitive thinking or avoidance. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on steps that move someone toward their goals and on what already works, which can be useful for breaking cycles that keep guilt or shame active.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what feels most useful. This is a collaborative process and can change as issues shift over time.
The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting conversations into a busy week and reducing time spent travelling. Online work can make shorter check-ins easier and allow flexible scheduling that suits work or family routines.
