Lily Llewellyn is a UK-licensed counsellor with five years of professional experience supporting adults and young people. She works in a person-centred way and has developed expertise across a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, LGBT-related issues, relationship and family difficulties, coping with life changes, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related difficulties, eating and sleeping problems, parenting, anger, self-esteem, career concerns, bipolar disorder, depression, compassion fatigue, and ADHD.
Lily trained in counselling while studying anthropology and has a strong background in listening, teaching, and working with diverse communities. She has taught English and English as a foreign language, travelled and lived in Europe, and gradually moved into counselling after completing formal training. Her academic training includes a PGDip in Person-Centred Counselling and she is completing an MSc in Person-Centred Counselling at Aberdeen University, alongside a children and young people specialism. She holds COSCA-accredited counselling skills and an MA in Anthropology.
In practice, Lily has combined volunteering and paid roles, including school counselling, work with ChildLine, volunteering at The Bounds in Aberdeen, and maintaining a private practice. She aims to empower people to understand and manage their emotions, helping them move away from feelings of powerlessness, emptiness, or despair toward greater agency and wellbeing.
She values creating a safe, trustworthy space for clients and considers it the highest compliment when someone feels secure in her presence. Outside of counselling, Lily enjoys reading, long walks, and simple pleasures like eating cake.
Many people ask whether online therapy can really help. For common difficulties such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or managing major life changes, research and professional experience show that remote counselling is an effective option comparable to traditional in-person work.
One major benefit is flexibility - clients can choose the format that fits their life best, whether that is video sessions, phone calls, live chat, or messaging inside an app. This adaptability makes it easier to keep up with therapy when schedules are busy or travel and location would otherwise be barriers.
Therapy offered online is provided by licensed professionals and therapists, and it is straightforward to try a different therapist if a client feels another fit would work better. For many people, the combination of evidence-based support and practical convenience makes online therapy a useful route to address everyday mental health needs.
