About Ryan
Ryan Lunn is a counsellor who uses relational and practical approaches to help people manage difficult emotions. He holds a BA Hons in Contemporary Relational Counselling and is BACP registered. He draws on three years of direct experience supporting people through common life struggles such as stress, anxiety and depression.
He offers a calm, respectful space to talk about grief and loss. He also works with people facing relationship difficulties and LGBTQ concerns.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what matters most to the individual and on small, achievable changes. Ryan combines attachment-based ideas with client-centred listening and cognitive tools. That mix helps people understand patterns, make different choices, and try out new ways of relating.
Mindfulness practices are used when helpful to manage overwhelming thoughts and emotions. In sessions he keeps language straightforward and practical. People can expect gentle questioning, reflections on patterns, and exercises to try between meetings.
The aim is to build tools that help in day-to-day life, not just in the room. Ryan works with adults in the United Kingdom and runs sessions online by video, phone, chat or messaging. He is available to discuss how therapy might fit with someone’s routine and priorities.
He welcomes questions from anyone curious about starting therapy and will explain the sign-up and matching steps clearly.

Online support
Client-centred counselling prioritises being heard. The therapist offers reflective listening and gentle prompts so people can notice their own thoughts and feelings and decide what changes to make.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. In online sessions this often includes simple exercises and worksheets to practise between meetings to reduce unhelpful thinking and ease symptoms like worry and low mood.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk through goals and preferences and suggest ways forward. This is a collaborative process and plans can be adjusted as the relationship develops.
Online sessions are available by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can fit into a break or suit those who prefer no video, and chat or messaging can be useful for shorter check-ins or ongoing support. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into everyday life.
