Lianne Flood
Practical, client-centred counselling for life changes
About Lianne
Lianne Flood is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She works in a warm, non-judgemental way and aims to make it easier to talk about difficult feelings. Lianne focuses on practical help so people can feel steadier day to day.
Her approach is client-centred, which means conversations follow what matters most to the person sitting in front of her. She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy - CBT - to help spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try small, concrete changes.
Background and approach
Solution-Focused Therapy is part of her practice too and can be useful for setting short-term, realistic goals. Common concerns Lianne addresses include anxiety, stress, depression, grief and trauma and abuse. She also supports people with relationship and intimacy-related issues, body image and eating concerns, career worries and self-esteem.
Additional focus areas include attachment and abandonment issues, communication problems and the impacts of family of origin and fatherhood struggles. Lianne has experience working with people from LGBT communities and with parenting and family-related stresses. She offers a calm space to talk through painful experiences such as domestic violence, separation and dissociation, and helps people find manageable next steps.
Sessions are offered in English and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. The first step is to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability.

Online approaches that focus on practical change
Client-Centred Therapy is about following what matters to the person and building a trusting conversation. It helps when someone needs a listening space to work through feelings and make sense of their experience.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy - CBT - looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours connect, and encourages small experiments to test new ways of coping. It can be helpful for anxiety, low mood and stress by offering clear steps to try between sessions.
Solution-Focused Therapy centres on setting short-term, realistic goals and noticing what already works. This approach suits people who want to move toward specific changes within a few sessions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Lianne will talk with clients about their needs, goals and preferences and will help decide which method or combination is most likely to help. That decision is shared and revisited as progress is made.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging gives practical flexibility. Video is useful for full conversations and visual cues, phone calls can fit into a busy day, and messaging or live chat allow shorter check-ins or more frequent contact. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments while keeping therapy consistent.
