Linda Henderson, BACP

Linda Henderson is a counsellor and psychotherapist registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has seven years of experience supporting people with stress, anxiety, low mood and relationship difficulties. Linda also works with clients facing neurodiversity, multiple sclerosis and caregiving stresses. She practices from the United Kingdom and runs sessions in English.

Her approach is down to earth and warm. She helps people notice their own strengths and uses that as a starting point for change. Clients set the pace and decide what to bring to sessions, whether that is grief, career worries, sleep troubles or feeling stuck.

Linda bases her work on the person-centred model while drawing on a range of techniques. She explains things plainly, offers practical strategies when useful, and provides psychoeducation about mental health and neurodiversity. She aims to increase self-awareness and help people find clear steps forward.

Her background includes counselling roles with MIND and MS-UK, work in a GP surgery, community development work in Plymouth and training as a Samaritan. She also has experience in social prescribing and knowledge of local and national services for mental health and autism.

Sessions are collaborative and trauma-aware. Linda will explore what you want from therapy and tailor methods to suit you, offering signposting to additional services when helpful. To begin, clients use the platform's matching process and schedule sessions according to availability.

How Linda’s approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the centre of the work. The therapist listens closely, follows your lead and helps you uncover what matters most. This approach is helpful for people wanting a supportive space to make sense of feelings and choices.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. It includes practical exercises and ways to test unhelpful thinking patterns, which can help with anxiety, low mood and sleep difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Linda will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and help decide which combination of methods fits best. This is a collaborative process and plans can be adjusted as therapy progresses.

Please confirm the current session options before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, by reducing travel time, offering shorter check-ins when needed, or allowing sessions during a lunch break. Registered or accredited professionals use these options to make therapy more practical for everyday routines.
