About Lily
Lily Earle is a counsellor who uses a practical and person-centred approach. She aims to offer a warm, non-judgemental space where people can reflect and find ways forward. Lily is a member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
She has 15 years of experience across public, charitable and personal settings in the United Kingdom. That experience includes working with adults and children in a range of contexts.
Background and approach
She draws on a variety of therapy styles to match each person's needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all method. Sessions are collaborative and tailored. Lily listens, mirrors, and reflects what she hears so people can make clearer decisions.
She helps clients set practical goals and then works with them step-by-step to untangle complex problems and move towards those goals. Lily often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Mindfulness and Client-Centred ways of working. She also brings elements of existential thinking and narrative approaches when these suit the person.
Her practice is flexible, adjusting as a person’s needs change over time. Common concerns she supports include anxiety, depression, grief, stress, relationship difficulties, trauma, eating and sleeping problems, addiction, ADHD and issues related to identity including LGBT matters. She also helps with career strain, caregiver stress, chronic illness and body image concerns.
People who choose to work with Lily start by identifying clear goals. She treats the therapeutic process as a partnership, and aims to help clients use their own resources to build more hopeful, manageable lives.

Therapeutic approaches and online support
Many of Lily's sessions draw on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). ACT focuses on helping people accept difficult thoughts and emotions while acting in line with what matters to them. It can be useful for anxiety, depression and coping with life changes.She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together. CBT helps people test unhelpful thinking patterns and try new, practical ways of responding to problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lily will discuss options and help decide what fits best with a person's goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process that can change as the work progresses.
If you are considering online therapy, please confirm the current session options before booking. Practically, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They may also enable people to meet their counsellor from different locations, which can help keep continuity when schedules change.
Registered or accredited professionals and therapists vary in how they run online work, so discuss format details and any practical needs when arranging the first session to ensure it suits your daily routine.
