Online Relationship Counselling · Lincoln
Online relationship counselling for Lincoln, by secure video, wherever you are. For many people in Lincoln, online sessions are not a compromise but the thing that finally makes therapy possible: flexible, private and fitted around your life.
Across Lincoln, from the historic Bailgate and the cathedral to Ermine, St Giles and the city centre below the hill, and from the streets around the cathedral, the castle and Steep Hill, online relationship counselling takes the logistics out of getting help: no commute, no waiting room, and the focus kept where it belongs, on you.
I'm based in Hove on the Sussex coast and work with clients right across the UK by secure video. For Lincoln, that means a BACP-registered counsellor specialising in addiction, anxiety, depression, relationships and trauma, available from the privacy of your own space.
I also work online with people elsewhere in Midlands, including Nottingham, Peterborough, Birmingham.
If you would still prefer to meet in person and can travel to the Sussex coast, you are welcome to, but for most clients in Lincoln online relationship counselling is the natural and effective choice.
Life in Lincoln
Lincoln is a striking cathedral and university city set in a large, flat and largely rural county, and that rural isolation means specialist help can be a long way off. A growing student population, low rural wages and the distance from bigger centres all shape what people carry.
Student and academic life can be intense and surprisingly lonely, even surrounded by people your own age. Working online keeps support steady through term and vacation alike, wherever you are.
What I help with
Breaking the cycle of the same argument.
Rebuilding safety after betrayal or addiction.
Finding your way back to closeness.
Sessions you can join from different places.
Working with people-pleasing and the need for control.
You do not need to come as a couple to change the dynamic.
Why online works in Lincoln
A confidential online hour asks nothing of appearances and meets you exactly where you are.
An online hour rarely costs you a half-day, which is what makes regular sessions realistic for busy lives in Lincoln.
If you move, travel for work or split your time between places, online counselling carries on uninterrupted wherever you happen to be.
From Lincoln, there's no journey across town and no waiting room. You join from wherever feels safe, and the rest of your day simply carries on around the session.
Here's what actually happens once we begin. My approach is integrative and person-centred. We are not looking for someone to blame, but at the system the two of you create together and where it gets stuck, drawing on relational therapy, Internal Family Systems and Human Givens approaches.
You don't need any special software, just a private space, a device with a camera and a decent connection. We always start with a free fifteen-minute call, and from then on you simply click a secure link at the time we've set.

Start the conversationMy online counselling sits alongside the help available locally, and it can be worth knowing what else is there. In Lincoln, you can refer yourself directly to NHS talking therapies for anxiety and depression, with no GP referral needed. You can find support through the NHS Talking Therapies finder.
Private sessions with me usually mean you can start sooner, stay with the same counsellor throughout, and work at greater depth and pace; the two can run side by side, and I'm glad to work alongside any NHS or GP support you already have.
This practice is not a crisis service. If you or someone else is in immediate danger, call 999.
For urgent mental health support, call NHS 111 and choose the mental health option. The Samaritans are free, day or night, on 116 123, or text SHOUT to 85258.
Lincoln questions

We meet over a secure, private video link at a time that suits you. You'll need a quiet space, a device with a camera and a steady connection. We always begin with a free fifteen-minute call so you can ask questions and check the fit.
Online and in-person therapy are similarly effective for most people, and clients usually settle quickly once the screen fades into the background and the conversation takes over.
Yes, and many people do both. You can access support from your local NHS talking therapies or counselling service alongside our work; private counselling simply means you can usually start sooner and stay with the same counsellor throughout. I'm happy to work alongside any NHS support you're receiving.
