About Lindsey
Lindsey Stafford is a BACP registered counsellor who helps people cope with stress, anxiety and panic attacks. She supports those facing depression, addiction, grief and parenting strain. Lindsey aims to create a warm, straightforward space where people can talk things through and feel heard.
She works in an open and collaborative way, guided by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy Ethical Framework. Sessions are practical and down-to-earth. Lindsey brings warmth, sensitivity and a calm sense of humour to conversations about difficult topics.
Her day-to-day approach uses a mix of well-established methods. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on changing unhelpful thoughts and habits. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify values and take steps that matter to them. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns.
Across ten years of counselling in public, charitable and voluntary settings, Lindsey has helped people with alcohol and drug addiction, bereavement and relationship issues. She also draws on more than two decades of experience in education, from classroom teaching to family practitioner roles.
Clients can expect honest feedback alongside practical tools and small, achievable goals. Lindsey aims to work at each person’s pace and to tailor strategies to everyday life. People who come for help often want straightforward guidance and a steady presence during hard moments.
How Lindsey’s approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people identify what matters to them and take small steps in that direction despite difficult feelings. It can be useful for anxiety, panic and low mood by shifting attention to values-based action rather than symptom control.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical exercises to test and change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, panic attacks and stress because it offers clear tools to try between sessions.
Attachment-based work focuses on relationship patterns that affect how people respond to stress and conflict. It helps people notice long-standing dynamics and practise different ways of relating in everyday life.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Lindsey will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what has helped or not helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as needed.
Please confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals often find remote sessions helpful for staying consistent with therapy while juggling work, family and day-to-day responsibilities.
