About Lynfa

Lynfa Wharam helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy-related issues, self-esteem concerns, depression, addictions and life changes. She works in a practical, open-minded way and uses a mix of approaches to suit each person's needs. Lynfa is registered with the NCPS and has seven years' experience as a counsellor.

She draws on a varied background, including twenty years working in international law firms in London and Essex. That experience contributes to a pragmatic style and an ability to discuss difficult topics plainly. She trained in psychotherapeutic counselling and hypnotherapy and describes her practice as integrative, combining different approaches rather than relying on a single method.

Lynfa also practises psychosexual therapy, covering sexual health concerns and relationship difficulties such as abusive relationships, trust and communication problems, affairs, and issues like premature ejaculation and low sexual desire. She offers this work with individuals and with couples.

Her sessions often use client-centred conversations alongside techniques from cognitive behavioural approaches, mindfulness and Jungian ideas when appropriate. She can include hypnotherapy where it suits the person's goals. Her style is straightforward and aims to help people make practical changes in daily life.

She volunteered as a mental health practitioner supporting NHS and care-home staff at the start of the pandemic. Lynfa works from the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English, including to international clients.

Approaches used in remote counselling and what they offer

Client-centred therapy focuses on the person's own perspective and aims to create a respectful, non-directive space for people to talk through what matters to them; it helps with confidence, relationship issues and emotional processing. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviours that maintain distress and offers practical strategies to change them; it is often used for anxiety, low mood and stress. Hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation and focused attention to support behaviour change and symptom relief for issues such as anxiety, certain eating concerns and habits.

Deciding which approach to use is part of the first sessions. The counsellor will work collaboratively to identify goals and suggest which methods might help, adjusting the plan as work progresses. This means the style can shift as needs and preferences become clearer.

Confirm the exact session formats before you book, as the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around work and family commitments, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some formats also use less bandwidth or let people choose whether to be on camera, which can help match sessions to everyday routines.
