About Jenny

Jenny Lyons is a UK counsellor and psychotherapist registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with four years of professional practice. She has a first degree in Psychology, a Masters in Healthy Psychology and a Level 6 Diploma in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy. Jenny works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and depression, and she lists anger among the concerns she addresses.

Her approach is practical and conversational. She uses a mix of methods including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and client-centred listening to help people understand difficult feelings. Sessions focus on real-life problems like work pressure, relationship strain and coping with loss.

Jenny also pays attention to how attachment and past relationships affect present behaviour. That can include looking at abandonment, communication problems and intimacy-related worries. She helps clients notice patterns and try different responses to reduce tension and frustration.

People who come for help with things like sleeping, eating or addictive behaviours will find a practitioner who combines direct skills training with open discussion. She can work on practical tools for managing strong reactions, and on longer term themes such as self-worth and life transitions.

Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted. To begin, users follow the site steps to complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange an initial session. Costs vary with location and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How sessions work

How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and decide what matters to them. Online ACT sessions can include exercises to clarify values and small actions to reduce reactivity. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together; it gives practical strategies to change unhelpful thinking and manage anger or anxiety.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client will discuss goals and preferences and try methods that suit the person’s situation. This is a collaborative process and may include short-term skill-building or longer conversations about past patterns and relationships.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions helpful because they fit into work breaks, avoid travel time and let them use written exercises or worksheets between meetings. Others prefer shorter check-ins when bandwidth or time is limited. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt the session content to suit day-to-day life and to focus on practical steps for managing anger and stress.
