About Lindsey
Counsellor Lindsey Hemmings is a BACP member with 20 years of experience. She works in the United Kingdom and helps people with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and depression. Lindsey also supports people facing major life changes.
Lindsey keeps sessions straightforward and focused on what is happening now and what keeps problems repeating. She listens for patterns linked to past experiences and relationships. That can help make sense of recurring anxiety, grief that won’t ease, or problems with trust and connection.
She commonly works with issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, codependency and problems with control. Lindsey also addresses relationship fallout including divorce or infidelity, and emotional problems like guilt, shame and isolation. Midlife questions, loss of purpose and recovery after trauma are within her remit.
Sessions look at how past events shape current feelings and behaviour. Conversations aim to increase self-understanding and practical ways to cope. Lindsey can help people develop more steady self-esteem and clearer choices when life feels out of control.
She offers a steady, conversational style that values honesty and respectful challenge. Lindsey explains ideas in plain language and helps people set realistic steps forward. For international callers or those in the UK, she works in English and uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.
Psychodynamic work and online counselling
Psychodynamic therapy looks at how early relationships and past events affect current feelings and choices. It pays attention to repeated patterns - for example, cycles of anxiety, problems trusting others or trouble with boundaries. This approach can help with grief, long-standing low self-esteem and issues that keep returning.The therapist will discuss how psychodynamic ideas might help and check whether other ways of working would suit better. Choosing an approach is a joint process. Lindsey will talk through options based on what a person wants to work on and how they prefer to meet for sessions.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life, for instance by avoiding travel or allowing shorter check-ins during a busy day. It can also let people keep continuity of care when they move or travel. Registered or accredited professionals can use online work to keep conversations focused and practical while helping a person reflect on how past patterns affect today.
