Lynne Mollison , BACP, NCPS

Lynne Mollison draws on a varied clinical and healthcare background to support adults and younger people through counselling and hypnotherapy. Her experience began in nursing, working in Neuroscience and Intensive Therapy Care, and continued with roles related to mental health in the NHS and the pharmaceutical industry, before focusing on counselling practice in a range of settings.

She has provided adult service counselling across organisations for difficulties such as trauma, anxiety, stress, relationship problems, loneliness, depression and risk management. That breadth of experience informs a holistic approach that recognises each person’s experience as unique. Lynne aims to create a supportive space in which individuals can explore their concerns, gain clearer understanding of themselves and identify resources for meaningful change.

Lynne offers private counselling and hypnotherapy for adults and younger people, and she also provides organisational support such as student services and workplace counselling. Her school counselling work has taken a whole-school approach, supporting staff, children and families and exploring childhood difficulties to help make sense of present challenges and open up different choices for the future.

She holds professional credentials including BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy membership) and NCPS (a recognised counselling qualification), and brings six years of practical experience to her practice.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s own experience, offering empathy, active listening and collaboration to help individuals explore their feelings and identify personal strengths. It is often helpful for relationship issues, self-esteem concerns and coping with life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical techniques to challenge unhelpful patterns. It is commonly used for anxiety, stress and low mood and can provide structured tools for day-to-day coping.

Mindfulness Therapy introduces present-focused practices that help people notice thoughts and bodily sensations more clearly, which can reduce reactivity and support emotional regulation across a range of difficulties.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Lynne works with clients and licensed professionals to identify which methods best fit the client’s needs, goals and preferences, and adapts the plan as therapy progresses.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. These formats make it possible to schedule sessions around work, family or study commitments and to maintain continuity of care when in-person meetings are not feasible, while still working with trained therapists to address meaningful concerns.
