Lily Earle, BACP

Lily Earle uses an integrative approach to help people manage stress, anxiety, grief and other life challenges. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and brings 15 years of practice experience. Lily writes plainly and meets people where they are, helping them take small steps that feel realistic and achievable.

She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Existential and Mindfulness approaches. Sessions focus on clarifying what matters to each person, spotting patterns that get in the way, and trying practical steps to change how life feels day to day. The work is collaborative and tailored to the individual's pace.

Lily has worked across public, charity and private settings. That range of experience informs how she adapts methods to different kinds of stress and loss. She often helps people who are facing shifting roles, difficult relationships, changes at work, or struggles with mood and self-worth.

Her style is warm and non-judgemental. She listens, reflects and helps people name the issues they want to tackle. Together they set goals and review progress so the therapy stays relevant and useful.

Practical matters such as coping with sleep or eating problems, managing anger, addiction struggles, parenting pressures and career choices are all within her focus. Sessions may include mindfulness exercises, values work, and straightforward cognitive strategies to reduce distress.

Lily supports people who want a thoughtful, flexible way to work through problems and build clearer steps forward. She welcomes questions and helps people take the next practical step toward arranging sessions.

Therapeutic approaches for online support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is about clarifying personal values and taking small committed steps towards them, even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. It can help with anxiety, low mood, and finding direction during life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and trying practical strategies to change behaviour and mood. It is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems and coping skills. Client-Centred Therapy puts the person's own experience at the centre of sessions; the therapist listens, reflects and helps the person make sense of their feelings and choices.

Finding the right approach usually happens together. Lily will work collaboratively to match methods to a person's goals and preferences, and she may draw on more than one approach as needs shift. This means the plan can change over time based on what helps most.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and exercises, phone sessions can fit a break at work or use less bandwidth, and live chat or text messaging suit shorter check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options help people keep therapy going around work, care duties or travel and make regular contact more manageable.
