About Lilian
Lilian Shundi uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage stress, anxiety, low mood and relationship strain. She works in English and Swahili and is registered with the HCPC in the United Kingdom. Lilian draws on her counselling psychology background to offer practical support and clear guidance at the start of therapy.
She often begins by helping people understand what keeps their problems going. That can mean looking at thoughts, behaviours and everyday routines.
Background and approach
From there she works with clients to try small, doable changes that build confidence and reduce distress over time. Her clinical work includes supporting people with relationship difficulties, family conflict, communication problems and the fallout of separation. She also helps with self-esteem, social anxiety, feelings of guilt or shame, loneliness and issues that come up in the workplace.
Lilian has four years of professional experience and uses a mix of approaches that suit each person. She offers psychoeducation and practical tools, and checks in about progress so plans can be adjusted. The focus is on what people can do now to feel steadier and more in control.
She encourages people to recognise their strengths and to take small steps towards change. Sessions aim to leave clients with concrete skills they can use after therapy ends. Lilian welcomes conversations about goals and how to make therapy fit into everyday life.

Focus areas and approaches
What Lilian works with
Everything Lilian lists, in their own terms.
Online support
She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to help people understand repeating patterns in relationships and emotions. This involves talking through past and present experiences to spot themes that affect current reactions and choices.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist discusses goals, preferences and what has helped before, then adapts methods as needed. Clients are involved in planning the work and reviewing progress so therapy fits their needs.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when more interaction is helpful. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer writing or want ongoing brief support between calls.
