About Lynn

Hi! I’m Lynn, an AFSP / UKCP Accredited Family & Systemic Psychotherapist and MBACP Registered Counsellor with over 25 years of experience supporting children, young people, adults, couples, and families. I specialise in helping people make sense of their relationships, navigate difficult emotions, and find new ways forward when things feel stuck or overwhelming. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in systemic thinking — which means I pay attention not only to the individual, but also to the relationships, histories, and contexts that shape our lives. I work with families, couples, teams and individuals, offering a safe and reflective space where you can explore challenges, strengthen communication, and build more meaningful connections. I have extensive experience across CAMHS, crisis services, inpatient units, and community settings, and I bring a trauma informed, culturally sensitive lens to all my work. Whether you’re seeking support with anxiety, low mood, family conflict, parenting challenges, neurodiversity, or the impact of past experiences, I tailor therapy to your unique needs and goals. Alongside direct therapeutic work, I also offer clinical supervision, reflective practice, and systemic consultation for practitioners and organisations. I’m passionate about supporting professionals to think systemically, deepen their practice, and feel more confident in complex situations.
