About John

John Lennox is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 14 years of experience. He helps people who are facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, bereavement and work-related pressures. He also supports people with relationship and intimacy concerns, addictions, eating and sleeping problems, and parenting stresses.

He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and an integrated approach in sessions. That means he focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and habits, and testing different responses in everyday life. Sessions are practical and goal-oriented, with clear steps to try between meetings.

John draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside client-centred and emotionally-focused work. Those methods are used to help people manage strong feelings, make values-based choices, and repair important connections. He adapts the mix of techniques to what each person brings to the room.

Over many years he has worked with a wide range of issues, including grief, anger, codependency, body image and work stress. He is also experienced with concerns related to ageing, caregiving and serious illness. This background informs how he frames problems and sets realistic short-term goals.

Sessions aim to be straightforward and structured. John asks about what matters most, explains practical steps, and agrees simple tasks to try between sessions. People are encouraged to review what helps and to adjust plans as they go.

How his approaches translate to online work

John commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in practical ways. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying different behavioural experiments to see what changes. That approach is useful for anxiety, low mood and everyday stresses. ACT emphasises values and small actions that move a person toward what matters, which can help with avoidance and motivation.

Attachment-Based Therapy is also part of his toolkit to look at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and emotional responses. That work often involves noticing interaction patterns and practising new ways of relating during sessions and at home. Choosing the right approach is part of the work together; the therapist will discuss options, set goals and adjust methods based on the client's needs and preferences.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a working day, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also allow people to use quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera if that helps them engage. Registered or accredited professionals can guide practical arrangements and recommend which approach and session pattern will work best.
