Lynfa Wharam welcomes people dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship and intimacy issues, addiction, grief and the aftermath of trauma. She also supports those facing career pressures, parenting stresses, eating-related concerns, ADHD, and life changes. Lynfa uses a calm, practical style and aims to make conversations straightforward and useful.

She trained in psychotherapeutic counselling and hypnotherapy and holds NCPS. Lynfa brings seven years of counselling experience to her practice and a prior twenty-year career in international law in London and Essex.

Background and approach

That background shapes her no-nonsense approach to practical problems and complex life decisions. Sessions are collaborative and tailored. She draws on client-centred principles, cognitive behaviour techniques, Jungian ideas and mindfulness, choosing what fits each person.

Hypnotherapy is offered as an additional tool where appropriate. Lynfa has worked with people coping with relationship breakdown, commitment and communication problems, blended family stresses, and issues linked to attachment and abandonment. She also supports clients exploring alternative sex culture, BDSM and kink in a non-judgemental way, as well as those dealing with domestic violence, separation, fatherhood concerns and caregiving stress.

Her style is down-to-earth and open-minded. Clients can expect practical steps alongside reflective work to understand patterns and choices. Lynfa aims to help people find manageable ways forward and clearer thinking about next steps.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting working relationship. The counsellor prioritises your experience and helps you find your own solutions, which can help with low self-esteem, relationship worries and life changes.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at unhelpful thoughts and habits and teaches practical ways to change them. It is useful for anxiety, stress, addictive behaviours and mood problems because it targets specific patterns and gives tools to practise between sessions.

Hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation and focused attention to help shift unhelpful responses and support behaviour change or emotional processing when appropriate. It can be used alongside talking therapy to address issues such as anxiety, eating-related concerns and habit change.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and will try different methods if needed. That collaborative process means the plan can change as progress is made.

Online sessions offer flexibility in how people connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging works for ongoing written support. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring responsibilities and busy schedules while keeping the focus on what helps you make steady progress.
