About Lindsay

Lindsay Welton is a BACP counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. She supports those facing life changes, relationship and intimacy concerns, addiction, grief, and issues around sleep or eating. Her approach is down-to-earth and aimed at helping people feel steadier in everyday life.

She creates a straightforward, non-judgemental space where people can talk about what’s on their mind. Conversations focus on what matters to the individual, and on practical steps they can try between sessions. Lindsay emphasises listening first and working at a pace the person finds comfortable.

Her work draws on attachment-based ideas to look at relationship patterns and on client-centred ways of keeping the person’s experience central. Cognitive behavioural techniques may be used to spot unhelpful thinking and try small changes. Mindfulness and psychodynamic ideas are also part of her mix when they suit someone’s needs.

With 12 years of experience in the United Kingdom, she has supported people through parenting strain, caregiver stress, chronic health challenges, and the fallout from separation and loss. Lindsay also works with those navigating ADHD, codependency, and complex overlaps of mood and trauma.

She invites people to take the first step when they feel ready. The process begins with a short questionnaire to match needs, then scheduling follows according to availability.

How counselling approaches shape online care

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections. It helps people understand repeated behaviours in close relationships and explore safer ways of relating. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s experience in the room. The counsellor listens without directing, helping people find their own answers and build confidence.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, helps spot and change patterns of thinking that keep problems going. It is practical and often involves small experiments or strategies to manage anxiety, low mood, or unhelpful habits. Lindsay uses elements of these approaches depending on what a person needs and prefers.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. The counsellor and client will look at goals, past experiences, and practical needs to decide which methods to try. This is a collaborative process that can change as work progresses and new priorities emerge.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, avoid travel time, and keep check-ins short when needed. It also allows for therapies that use talking, thought exercises, and guided attentional practices to be carried out from wherever a person is based, while the choice of approach remains personalised.
