About Lindsay

Lindsay Welton is a counsellor who supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression and the strain of life changes. She also helps with parenting concerns, relationship and intimacy issues, addiction, grief and sleep or eating difficulties. Her goal is to make the first step feel less daunting and more manageable.

She keeps sessions straightforward and warm. Lindsay creates a space where people can speak honestly without fear of judgement.

Background and approach

Conversations focus on practical ways to cope and on small changes that build over time. Her approach draws on attachment-based work to look at relationship patterns and on client-centred methods that prioritise each person’s experience. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, mindfulness and psychodynamic ideas are used when they fit the client’s needs.

Lindsay has worked in the United Kingdom for 12 years and holds BACP registration, which reflects her professional standing in the UK. She combines that experience with a steady, approachable manner rather than jargon or complicated plans. Sessions aim to be collaborative.

Goals are set together and revisited as progress is made. People often focus on coping tools, clearer communication, managing mood, and rebuilding confidence. Practical matters such as session format and scheduling are discussed at the start.

Lindsay uses several online formats to fit different routines and preferences.

Online support

How therapeutic approaches work online

Attachment-based work looks at how past relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions can use this approach to understand attachment issues, communication problems and struggles with intimacy.

Client-centred counselling focuses on the person’s experience and priorities. Through listening and gentle reflection the counsellor helps people find their own solutions and build confidence to tackle parenting strain, grief or life changes.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) breaks worries and unhelpful behaviours into manageable parts. Online CBT often includes practical exercises and short tasks between sessions to help with anxiety, low mood and sleep or eating concerns.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide which combination of methods feels most helpful and adapt the plan over time.

Online therapy offers flexibility for different routines. Video calls are close to face-to-face and suit longer discussions. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or the client prefers not to use video. Live chat and text messaging allow quick check-ins, shorter sessions or written reflection that fits around busy days.
