About Lily
Lily Llewellyn is a counsellor who draws on existential and person-centred approaches to help people make sense of difficulty and regain a sense of agency. She holds a BACP credential and has five years of experience working with adults and young people. Lily aims to offer calm, steady support when life feels confusing or overwhelming.
She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression and mood conditions such as bipolar, along with grief and trauma.
Background and approach
Lily also supports people facing relationship and intimacy issues, family difficulties and struggles around identity, including LGBT concerns. Practical matters like sleep, eating and work-related stress are within her remit too. Lily trained in person-centred counselling and completed postgraduate study alongside earlier work in teaching and anthropology.
She has spent time as a volunteer counsellor and works in independent practice and school settings. This background shapes a straightforward, listening-led way of working. In sessions she pays attention to what matters to the individual and the meanings behind their feelings.
Conversations aim to increase self-understanding, uncover choices and build strategies for coping. The tone is collaborative and down-to-earth rather than overly clinical. She offers a mix of session formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging.
Lily is based in the United Kingdom and conducts therapy in English, and she accepts international clients.

Online support
How existential and person-centred work translate online
Existential therapy helps people look at what matters to them and how they want to live. It often focuses on questions of meaning, choice and facing difficult emotions, which can be useful for grief, emptiness or life transitions.Client-centred therapy places the person and their experience at the heart of sessions. The counsellor offers attentive listening, empathy and acceptance to help someone feel heard and make personal discoveries. Emotionally-Focused Therapy supports understanding emotional patterns in relationships and in how people relate to themselves, which can help with intimacy and attachment concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lily will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and agree a way of working together. That discussion is collaborative and may blend elements from different approaches as needed.
Online formats offer practical advantages for many people. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when meeting in person is difficult. Phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option or easier when you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins, note-taking, or people who find writing easier than talking. These choices make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments.
