About Lydia
Lydia Jenkins is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and sleep difficulties. She supports those dealing with loss, trauma, anger and big life changes. Lydia also works with concerns such as ADHD, relationship problems, career strain and compassion fatigue.
She takes a person-centred approach and combines gentle listening with practical exercises. That means sessions include space to talk and time to try new coping strategies together. Lydia names the approaches she draws on as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Existential Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy.
Lydia aims to work at a client’s own pace. She describes sessions as warm and non-judgemental, and she keeps the person in charge of the work. This can suit people who want both emotional support and hands-on techniques to manage day-to-day difficulties.
Her background notes five years of professional experience and she holds BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy registration. Lydia accepts clients in the United Kingdom and from other countries and conducts work in English.
If someone is unsure where to begin, Lydia asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a session. She says short term and longer term work are both possible, depending on what a person needs.
How Lydia's approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking small steps towards those values while learning to tolerate difficult thoughts and feelings. It often helps with anxiety, depression and sleep disruption by shifting the focus from fighting symptoms to building a meaningful routine. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people notice and change unhelpful ways of relating to others. This can be useful when intimacy, abandonment or attachment issues affect daily life. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lydia collaborates with each person to choose which methods fit their goals and preferences. She will listen to what matters, try approaches gently, and adjust the plan together as progress is made. Please confirm the current session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people use mindfulness exercises and behavioural experiments in familiar surroundings, which can help transfer new skills into everyday life.Areas of expertise
