About John

John Lennox works on stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, self-esteem and relationship and intimacy concerns using approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. He is a BACP member and has 14 years' experience in therapeutic work in the United Kingdom.

John draws on a mix of practical techniques and talking-based methods. Sessions focus on what is causing difficulty now and on small steps that can help people feel steadier. He uses CBT techniques to look at thoughts and behaviours, ACT ideas to clarify values and move towards them, and attachment-informed thinking when relationship patterns are central.

He has worked with people facing bereavement, abuse, trauma and PTSD, work-related strain, addiction and low self-confidence. He also supports people dealing with parenting strain, body image and sexuality matters including LGBT and kink-related issues. He helps with sleep and eating concerns, anger and phases of major life change.

In the room he aims to build a clear understanding of each person's situation. He listens for patterns, tests small changes in thinking or behaviour, and reviews what helps. Sessions are practical and conversational, using well-known therapeutic tools alongside open discussion.

John accepts international clients and offers counselling in English. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, select the Talk to a counsellor online button, complete the short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

Therapeutic approaches used and how they work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps towards those values while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and life changes.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours, and uses practical exercises to try different coping strategies. It is commonly applied to anxiety, depression, sleep and behavioural patterns.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current relationships and emotional responses. It can help when relationship difficulties, intimacy issues or attachment concerns are central.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss aims, try methods that fit the person's needs, and adjust the plan together as progress is reviewed.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also allows people to work with a therapist in a different location, which is useful for international clients and those balancing work or caregiving commitments.
