Lianne Flood uses a warm, person-focused approach to help people who are feeling stuck or overwhelmed. She keeps sessions straightforward and practical so parents and individuals can talk through what matters most. Lianne brings four years of professional experience and is registered with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.

Her work often centres on anxiety, stress and depression, alongside relationship and family concerns. She also supports people facing trauma, grief, eating and body image issues, and challenges around intimacy and attachment.

Background and approach

Lianne is comfortable addressing topics linked to LGBT identity, parenting and fatherhood issues. Lianne blends Client-Centred therapy with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, and uses Solution-Focused techniques when helpful. That means she listens first, helps people make sense of thoughts and feelings, and then focuses on small practical steps that can change day-to-day life.

Conversations are paced to match each person’s needs. She also works with concerns such as communication problems, commitment worries, control and abandonment issues, and the effects of family of origin difficulties. For people navigating separation, domestic violence histories, dissociation or compassion fatigue, she offers steady, non-judgemental support.

Sessions are offered in English and take place online in several formats. Lianne aims to make it simple to start - a short matching questionnaire helps pair people with the best appointment times and formats for their situation.

Approaches and online counselling options

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person without judgement. It helps people feel heard and builds a foundation for tackling issues like low self-esteem, relationship worries and grief.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect. It is useful for anxiety, depression and stress because it helps identify unhelpful thinking and test new behaviours.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, achievable steps and the strengths people already have. It is helpful when someone wants practical change or clearer short-term goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has helped before, then suggest methods to try. This is a collaborative process and approaches can be adapted as needs change.

Online sessions are offered by registered or accredited professionals using video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls suit longer, face-to-face style sessions; phone calls can be a simpler option when bandwidth is low. Live chat or messaging may work well for quick check-ins, daily support or for people who prefer writing. These formats make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, childcare and other commitments.
