About Lennox(Lenny)
Lennox (Lenny) Roberts-Flanders offers approachable support for people feeling overwhelmed by parenting pressures and life changes. She aims to create a calm space where a worried parent can talk through day-to-day struggles, regain confidence and find practical ways to cope. Her style is steady and straightforward, focused on what will help in everyday life.
She explains her BACP credential as membership with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and brings six years of professional counselling experience.
Background and approach
Before this she spent many years working in frontline mental health services, which shaped a trauma-aware way of working. Lenny uses a mix of counselling approaches. She listens first, then helps clients find clearer ways to think about stressful situations.
She draws on cognitive-behavioural tools to spot unhelpful thoughts, and narrative ideas to rewrite parts of a story that feel stuck. Practical skills are part of sessions. That can include short coping plans, breathing exercises, or steps to test a new way of doing things between meetings.
Conversations also cover boundaries, communication and managing pressure at home or at work. She works with a wide range of concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma and parenting stress. People also come for help with self-esteem, career worries, grief and long-term health challenges.
Sessions aim to be collaborative and paced to each person's needs.

How Lenny uses talking therapies online
Client-centred work focuses on the person's own experience and priorities. The counsellor listens without judgement and helps the client name what matters most and set the pace for change. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and offers simple exercises to test different ways of thinking and acting. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, DBT, provides practical coping skills for managing strong emotions and reducing unhelpful reactions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Lenny will discuss what feels most useful and try different ways to see what helps. This is a collaborative process built around the client's needs, goals and preferences rather than a fixed plan.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different lives. Video allows face-to-face conversation when time and bandwidth allow. Phone sessions can be easier when video is not possible or bandwidth is low. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins, ongoing coaching-style support or people who prefer writing over speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy around parenting, work and daily routines.
