About Lily

Lily Llewellyn is a counsellor who centres her work on the client. She uses person-centred approaches to help people feel heard and understood. Lily aims to make therapy straightforward and practical for those feeling stuck.

Lily draws on five years of experience working with adults and young people. She has been a volunteer counsellor and a school counsellor, and she runs a independent practice. Her background includes teaching English and studying anthropology, which shaped her interest in how people become who they are.

Background and approach

In sessions she listens carefully and follows what matters most to the person in front of her. She also uses emotionally focused ideas when relationships or strong feelings are part of the problem. These ways of working help with anxiety, low mood, grief and relationship concerns, among other issues.

Clients often come with worries about identity, addiction, family pressures or work-related stress. Lily also supports people facing eating or sleeping problems, anger, low self-esteem and life changes. She pays attention to attachment patterns, communication problems and issues that come from family of origin or blended family situations.

Her training includes postgraduate study in person-centred counselling at Aberdeen University and qualifications in counselling skills. Lily is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She offers sessions in English and accepts clients in the United Kingdom and internationally.

To begin, people complete a short questionnaire and then arrange sessions at times that suit them. Lily keeps a calm and simple approach so conversations can focus on what will help next.

Ways of working Lily names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Approaches that translate well online and by phone

Client-centred therapy focuses on creating a listening space where the counsellor follows the client's lead and reflects what is being felt. This approach helps when someone needs validation, clearer self-understanding or steady support during life changes.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice, name and work with strong emotions, especially in relation to close relationships. It can be useful for managing grief, intimacy issues, attachment struggles and high-intensity feelings that keep repeating.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will talk with the client about needs, goals and preferences and then agree on how to proceed. That collaboration means methods can be adapted as things change during therapy.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging to suit different lifestyles. Video is useful for a fuller conversational feel, phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, chat or messaging can fit into busy days or provide a shorter check-in. These options make it easier to access therapy from different locations and at varied times, while keeping the focus on the therapeutic relationship and progress.
