Ryan Lunn, BACP

Ryan Lunn is a BACP counsellor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, grief and relationship difficulties. He works with clients who have LGBT related concerns, depression, eating issues, low self esteem and ADHD. Ryan keeps language simple and practical so conversations remain grounded and straightforward.

Ryan trained with a BA Hons in Contemporary Relational Counselling and has three years of experience. He aims to create a warm, open space where people can say what feels difficult without judgement. He treats starting therapy as a step-by-step process and supports each person at their own pace.

In sessions Ryan draws on attachment-based ways of thinking, client-centred listening and cognitive behavioural methods to make sense of patterns that cause pain. He also uses elements of emotionally-focused work and mindfulness to help people notice feelings and respond differently to them. This mix helps with common problems such as abandonment fears, communication issues, and coping with life changes.

Ryan often helps people work through family problems, separation and forgiveness, as well as anxiety linked to work and career choices. He pays attention to how past experiences shape present relationships and practical steps that reduce distress. Sessions focus on clear goals, manageable changes and building everyday coping skills.

Sessions are conducted in English from the United Kingdom. He encourages anyone thinking about therapy to ask questions and to use the continue button on this profile to begin the matching process.

How his therapeutic approaches work online

Attachment-based work looks at how early bonds shape current reactions and relationships, and helps people notice and change repeating patterns in their connections. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, acceptance and the client’s own pace, enabling people to clarify what matters to them and to find their own solutions. Cognitive behavioural techniques break down unhelpful thoughts and behaviours into small steps, offering practical strategies for anxiety, low mood and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and how you like to work, and will help decide which methods suit your situation. That choice is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy life and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to keep regular appointments around work or family commitments and to use brief check-ins when needed.
