About Lily

Lily Earle is a counsellor who uses a blended approach to help people find rest and better sleep alongside wider mental health goals. She brings 15 years of experience and membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Lily aims to create a warm, non-judgemental space where people can reflect and work toward practical changes.

She works collaboratively and adapts methods to each person. Sessions can include talking through daily patterns that affect sleep, unpicking stress and anxiety, and developing routines that support rest. Lily draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioural ideas, mindfulness and person-centred listening to make interventions fit the individual.

Her background includes clinical practice across public, charitable and private sectors, and teaching on a university counselling degree. That mix means she is used to explaining techniques plainly and helping people try them out between sessions.

In therapy she helps people set clear goals, reflect on what matters to them, and take small steps towards change. Work may cover grief, relationships, self-esteem, addiction, chronic health challenges and sleep difficulties, often addressing how these issues affect daily rhythms and rest.

Lily sees therapy as a collaborative process. She mirrors and summarises what she hears, offers practical strategies, and helps clients decide which next steps suit them. To begin, clients use the site process to match and schedule sessions according to availability.

How Lily’s approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood, sleep disruption and coping with change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behaviour that keep problems going and trying small behavioural experiments to change them; this can include sleep-focused techniques and managing daytime routines. Client-centred therapy emphasises empathic listening and reflecting back what matters to the person, which helps people feel heard and clearer about next steps.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs, then suggest which methods to try together. This is a collaborative process and approaches can be adjusted as therapy progresses.

Check which session formats are available before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, avoid travel time, and keep appointments during travel or relocation. It also allows for flexible session lengths and brief check-ins when life is hectic. Confirm practical arrangements during the matching and scheduling steps so sessions align with daily routines and goals.
