About Lydia

Lydia Jenkins is a counsellor who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. She supports those coping with life changes, grief, trauma and anger. Lydia also works with people facing issues around relationships, intimacy, career strain, ADHD and LGBT concerns.

Her style is straightforward and practical. She listens first, then works alongside each person to try things that might help. Sessions can include talking, breathing and grounding exercises, and simple behavioural tasks to try between meetings.

Background and approach

Lydia draws on person-centred ideas while also using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-focused work and mindfulness. That mix lets her balance empathic listening with practical exercises. The approaches aim to help people notice difficult thoughts, connect with values and find small steps forward.

She has five years of experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Lydia offers sessions in English and accepts international clients, working with people across the United Kingdom and beyond. Therapy is arranged through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging.

Lydia asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire to find a good fit and then schedule sessions that suit them. Fees vary with location and are billed through a cancellable subscription.

Ways of working Lydia names

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

How Lydia’s approaches work online

Lydia combines Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based work alongside a person-centred way of being. ACT helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, clarify what matters to them, and try small actions that match their values. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns affect current feelings and interactions, and can help with trust, closeness and communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Lydia will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what feels useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adapt as work progresses, so therapy stays relevant and manageable.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that is helpful, phone sessions suit those who need less bandwidth, and live chat or text-based messaging can work for brief check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving or travel and to keep continuity when life changes.
