About Lynfa
Lynfa Wharam is a UK-based counsellor with seven years' experience working with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports those dealing with addiction, grief, eating and family issues, trauma and abuse, career changes and ADHD. Lynfa uses clear, practical language and a calm presence to make conversations feel straightforward and grounded.
Lynfa trained in psychotherapeutic counselling and hypnotherapy and holds NCPS as a listed credential.
Background and approach
She previously worked for twenty years in international law firms in London and Essex, and she draws on that background when helping people manage pressure and life transitions. She volunteered at the start of the pandemic to support NHS and care-home staff through a mental health project.
Her approach is integrative, which means she blends techniques to match each person’s needs rather than using only one method. Sessions can include client-centred listening, mindful practices, cognitive tools to change unhelpful thinking, or hypnotherapy when appropriate. The focus is practical - identifying small, manageable steps to feel better.
She is comfortable talking about sexual health, intimacy and relationship difficulties, including issues such as commitment, trust and communication. That work may also cover abusive relationships and the sexual concerns that affect partnerships or individuals. Sessions are offered in English and can be scheduled in formats that suit the client.
Lynfa aims to create a respectful space where people can talk through difficult topics and find ways to cope and move forward.

Approaches that suit online work and practical needs
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The therapist follows the person’s lead, offering empathy and reflection to help people find their own solutions. It can help with relationship worries, low self-esteem and navigating life changes.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It uses simple exercises to challenge unhelpful thinking and build new routines, which can be useful for anxiety, depression and stress management.
Hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation and focused attention to access helpful suggestions and imagery. Some people find it supports changes in habit, reduces anxiety and complements other talking therapies.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and suggest techniques that might help. Decisions are made together and can adapt as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues and deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or messaging suits short check-ins, brief reflections or people who prefer writing. All options add flexibility and make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments.
