About Lilian
Lilian Shundi is a counselling psychologist who offers practical, evidence-based support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or depression. She works in the United Kingdom and communicates in English and Swahili. Lilian uses clear explanations and step-by-step strategies so people can start feeling steadier sooner.
She holds a professional doctorate in counselling psychology and is registered with the HCPC. Over four years she has supported people through relationship strain, family conflict, and changes such as separation or midlife shifts.
Background and approach
She also helps with self-esteem, motivation and workplace difficulties. Lilian commonly uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to spot unhelpful thought patterns and try small, practical behaviour changes. She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at longer-standing themes that affect how people relate and cope.
The therapy is collaborative and paced to the person’s needs. Sessions include psychoeducation and concrete tools to manage symptoms day to day, as well as space to talk about deeper feelings such as guilt, shame or grief. Lilian aims to help clients build skills they can use after therapy finishes.
She encourages straightforward language and small, achievable steps. The first sessions focus on understanding what matters most to the person and setting practical goals. Lilian welcomes people who want calm, honest conversations and clear strategies to move forward.

Focus areas and approaches
What Lilian works with
Everything Lilian lists, in their own terms.
Online support
Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. Lilian will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then try methods that fit. The process is collaborative and can shift over time as needs change, combining short-term skills with deeper reflection when that suits the client.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that matters, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier on the go, and live chat or text-based messaging work well for short check-ins or when someone prefers writing. These options help people fit therapy into work, family or travel commitments while still using evidence-based techniques with a registered professional.
