About Lily

Lily Llewellyn is a counsellor who uses person-centred and emotionally focused ways of working to help people facing trauma, anxiety, grief and relationship concerns. She qualified with a postgraduate diploma and is a BACP member. Lily writes simply and listens closely to understand what matters to each person.

She blends Client-Centred Therapy with elements of Emotionally-Focused Therapy and existential thinking. Sessions aim to clarify feelings, improve communication, and rebuild a sense of agency after painful experiences.

Background and approach

Lily often helps people with stress, coping with life changes, addiction issues, eating and sleeping problems, and intimacy concerns. Her background includes an MA in Anthropology and postgraduate counselling study at Aberdeen University. She has worked as a school counsellor, volunteered with ChildLine and other services, and runs a independent practice.

These roles inform her practical approach and familiarity with a range of life problems. Lily describes therapy as a shared process. She works to create safety and steady support while people talk through emotions, family of origin issues, or attachment and communication problems.

She also supports people dealing with depression, bipolar, ADHD and compassion fatigue. Sessions are available online and by phone, and she offers options for live chat or text-based messaging. Lily accepts international clients and uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

How Lily’s approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens without judgement and follows the client’s pace, helping people feel heard and understood. This approach is useful for anxiety, low self-esteem, grief and many relationship worries.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on emotions and attachment needs. It helps people identify patterns in close relationships and change how they respond to strong feelings. This style can support those dealing with intimacy issues, attachment concerns and trauma-related wounds.

Finding the right approach is part of the work and happens together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then adapt the methods accordingly. Clients are involved in choosing whether to emphasise listening, emotional processing or meaning-making.

Online sessions give practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or when a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins, reflective notes, or people who prefer writing rather than talking. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping the therapeutic focus intact.
