Lily Earle is a counsellor who uses an integrative approach to support people through hard times. She combines practical methods with person-centred listening to help clients find clarity and make changes. Lily holds BACP membership which shows her commitment to professional standards.

She brings 15 years of experience across public, charity and personal settings in the United Kingdom. Her work focuses on everyday problems such as stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression.

Background and approach

She also supports people facing grief, relationship difficulties, addiction concerns, trauma and identity questions. Additional areas she attends to include body image, chronic illness, caregiver strain and issues around attachment and abandonment. Lily draws on methods from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Existential Therapy and Mindfulness.

She blends these approaches to match each person’s needs rather than using a single fixed method. Sessions involve listening, reflection and practical steps aimed at achievable goals. Her style is collaborative and flexible.

She encourages clients to identify what matters most to them and uses conversation and reflection to untangle complex problems one step at a time. Where helpful, she introduces exercises to build coping skills and to change unhelpful patterns in thinking and behaviour. Lily also has experience teaching and supervising on an undergraduate counselling programme, which keeps her practice grounded in current thinking.

She welcomes people from varied backgrounds and supports international clients in English.

Therapeutic approaches for online support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and to act on what matters most in life. It can be useful for anxiety, depression and coping with major life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical tools to reduce unhelpful patterns such as worry or low mood. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises a warm, non-judgemental relationship where the counsellor listens and reflects so the person can better understand themselves.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The counsellor will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. Together they will review progress and adapt the plan if something is not helping, so the process remains flexible and tailored.

Online therapy offers options that make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging support shorter check-ins or written reflection between sessions. These formats help people access therapy from different locations and at times that suit them, while keeping the focus on practical steps and emotional understanding.
