About Lindsay
Lindsay Welton is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 12 years of experience. She helps people who are managing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression and difficulties with motivation. She describes her work as practical and straightforward and aims to help people talk through thoughts and feelings that get in the way of everyday life.
In sessions she uses a mix of approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), attachment-based techniques, client-centred methods, mindfulness and some psychodynamic ideas. That means she looks at patterns in thinking and behaviour, how early relationships shape current reactions, and how present moment awareness can reduce reactivity. Sessions tend to focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts, testing different responses, and building simple routines that make life easier.
She works collaboratively, inviting people to set clear goals and try short experiments between appointments. Practical tasks, breathing or grounding practices, thought records and straightforward reflection are common tools. Conversations aim to be concrete and focused rather than abstract or theoretical.
Lindsay has experience supporting people with a broad range of concerns beyond anxiety and depression, including relationship and family issues, addiction, grief, eating and sleeping problems, parenting strain, ADHD and chronic health challenges. She also works with attachment and communication difficulties that affect close relationships.
Sessions are conducted in English and follow a structured, goal-oriented style. Prospective clients are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire before booking a first session to ensure the approach fits their current needs.
How Lindsay uses evidence-informed approaches online
Many of her methods translate into focused online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps by breaking problems into thoughts, feelings and actions. Online sessions can look at thought patterns, test new behaviours and set short tasks to try between appointments. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early and close relationships shape current reactions and communication. It can help people understand relationship triggers and practise different ways of relating. Client-Centred Therapy keeps the conversation grounded in the persons concerns, offering reflective listening and emphasis on the clients own goals and pacing.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. She will discuss goals and preferences, and together they decide which methods to try first. The plan can change as progress is reviewed and new priorities emerge.
The original biography did not specify which online session formats are used, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people use breathing or grounding practices in the moment and to review worksheets or thought records together during a session.
