About Lianne
Lianne Gow is a counsellor who trained and practised over three years and is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has worked in mental health roles for more than seven years and focuses on straightforward, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed by life. Lianne helps with stress and anxiety and with depression.
She also supports people who have experienced trauma or abuse and those struggling with low self-esteem.
Background and approach
Her approach is warm and respectful and she aims to make people feel heard from the first session. In sessions she works alongside each person to agree what they want to work on and how to do that. Conversations are collaborative, with Lianne asking questions, reflecting back what she hears, and offering simple strategies when useful.
She favours a calm, steady pace that lets people set the tempo. Her wider focus includes issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness or pain, and communication problems. She also addresses divorce and separation, guilt and shame, isolation, and midlife concerns.
Lianne draws on client-centred therapy, which puts the person’s own experience at the heart of the work. She aims to build trust and help people notice what gets in the way of change. Her style suits those who want respectful listening alongside practical conversation about next steps.

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.
Client‑centred care online and how it helps
Client-centred therapy focuses on listening deeply and following the person’s lead. The counsellor offers empathy and reflection rather than directing the conversation. This approach helps when someone needs understanding for anxiety, low self-esteem or the effects of trauma.Sessions aim to build trust and allow the client to explore worries at their own pace. The counsellor collaborates with the client to set goals and decide what methods feel most useful. Finding the right approach is part of the work and Lianne will help decide what fits your needs and preferences.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to give practical options around daily life. Video lets you keep face-to-face connection, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These choices make it easier to fit counselling around work, care duties and travel.
