About Lindsey
Lindsey Stafford helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction and grief. She also supports those dealing with parenting strain, anger, low self-esteem and family conflict. Lindsey works with issues like panic, codependency and workplace problems too.
Lindsey brings ten years of counselling experience across public, charitable and voluntary services. She is a BACP Therapist - Registered Member MBACP, which means she follows the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy's registration standards.
Background and approach
Before qualifying as a counsellor she spent over 20 years working in education, from teaching to family practitioner roles. Her style is open and collaborative. Sessions are practical and straightforward, with room for honesty and warmth.
Lindsey aims to create a respectful space where people can talk, reflect and try new ways of coping. She draws on approaches such as cognitive behavioural techniques and acceptance and commitment ideas to help people change unhelpful patterns and act in line with their values. Attachment-based and client-centred ways of working guide how she builds a trusting relationship with each person.
Therapy typically focuses on clear goals and small steps that fit everyday life. Lindsey helps people identify what matters, practise useful skills and review progress together. Her background in education often helps when supporting parents and young adults who want practical strategies.
Sessions are offered in English and are suitable for people living in the United Kingdom who prefer a collaborative, down-to-earth counsellor.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lindsey will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and choose techniques together in a collaborative way. That means sessions can blend methods so the plan fits what you want to achieve and how you prefer to work.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to make counselling flexible. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation when that matters. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and messaging suit quick exchanges, ongoing support and people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and daily life while still working with registered or accredited professionals.
