About John

John Lennox is a counsellor who helps people with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, grief and relationship concerns. He also supports people facing career strain, addictive behaviours, parenting challenges and intimacy-related issues. He is presented with 14 years of experience and holds BACP accreditation.

He works in a straightforward, person-focused way. Sessions aim to help people talk through what matters, try new coping steps and notice what works in daily life. He draws on practical methods rather than jargon, so conversations stay easy to follow.

John uses approaches such as cognitive behavioural therapy and client-centred work to map patterns and test small changes. He also uses acceptance and commitment ideas to help people notice thoughts and choose actions that match their values. Attachment-based and emotionally-focused methods are brought in when relationships and connection are central concerns.

Across sessions he focuses on building a good rapport and clear goals. That involves checking what someone wants to change and setting simple steps to get there. Progress is reviewed regularly so plans can shift if needed.

He works with a wide range of issues including body image, bereavement, caregiver stress, blended family difficulties, sexual diversity and stress related to major events. Sessions are offered in English and he accepts international clients; confirm current session formats before booking.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck by them, and then choose actions that match what matters most to them. It can be useful for anxiety, depression and for coping with life changes.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses small experiments to test new ways of responding. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and unhelpful routines.

Attachment-Based and Emotionally-Focused ideas focus on patterns in relationships and how people connect or become distant. These approaches can help when relationship distress, intimacy issues or past attachment wounds are important to address.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about their needs, goals and preferences and will agree a way forward together. That collaborative decision means methods can be mixed or changed if they are not helpful.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around everyday life, for example by removing travel time or allowing a shorter check-in between other commitments. It can also suit people who prefer to speak without being on camera, or who need a format that uses less bandwidth. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking.
