Linda Henderson, BACP

Linda Henderson is a counsellor with seven years' experience supporting people across a wide range of concerns. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and offers a calm, down-to-earth approach. Linda aims to help people notice their strengths and find practical ways forward when life feels hard.

She works with whatever clients bring to sessions, including stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties, bereavement, and challenges tied to neurodiversity or long-term illness. Sessions may also focus on self-esteem, coping with change, parenting strains, sleep problems, or anger. Linda tailors the work to each person rather than following a fixed formula.

Her style is collaborative and trauma informed. She listens first, then suggests ideas, strategies and information that might help. Techniques come from several approaches and are chosen to suit an individual’s needs and goals. Clients set the pace and decide what they want to explore.

Linda has worked for charities and within primary care, and she brings that practical background into sessions. She also offers signposting to local and national services when that is useful. Across her work she focuses on helping people gain clarity, increase self-awareness and move towards solutions that feel manageable.

People looking for straightforward, empathetic support for everyday and complex problems may find her approach accessible. If you want a counsellor who listens, offers options, and works at your speed, Linda may be a good fit.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on building a respectful, accepting relationship so people can talk about what matters to them. It suits worries tied to identity, self-esteem and feeling understood. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at thinking and behaviour patterns and teaches practical techniques to manage mood, anxiety and sleep. These approaches are used in straightforward, usable ways to help tackle everyday problems and recurring thoughts.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and then suggest ways to proceed. This is a collaborative process and the client helps choose which methods feel most useful and comfortable.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking so you know what is offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into work, family or daily routines by removing travel time and allowing more flexible scheduling. They can also let people choose quieter or simpler check-ins when life is busy, or use more structured sessions when practical strategies are the focus. Registered or accredited professionals provide the care and will help arrange sessions that match your needs.
