More about Serina

Hi and welcome. I am Serina Lyn an experienced Integrative Counsellor licensed in the UK and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I have experience working with adults who have a variety of issues and specialise in working with those who have experienced domestic violence and mental health issues.

My role is to be with you on your journey as you work towards dealing with challenges and any difficult situations you are facing. Using an integrative approach, I am able to combine different counselling approaches and tailor them to fit my client’s needs. For example, I could use Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to help you identify unhelpful thoughts and thinking patterns also use Psychodynamics to see where those unhelpful thoughts have come from.

I know taking the first steps to exploring the difficulties you are facing can be challenging and painful but from personal experience I know it can also be empowering. Counselling can allow you to rediscover who you truly are and the life you want to live.

My aim is to help you better understand your thoughts, feelings and behaviours, what they mean, and how they relate to your present day struggles and challenges. Working therapeutically together, we will work to deepen your awareness and understanding of your needs, desires, and patterns of relating, so you may experience a more authentic and fulfilling life.

At some point in our life we experience emotional overwhelm which causes many people to feel lost, isolated and alone. Therapy with Serina Lyn, first and foremost, is a way to relieve that sense of aloneness and form a trusting, collaborative relationship with someone who accepts you just as you are.

My mission is to empower each person by guiding them along the journey of personal growth and change.

About online counseling

Affordable.: Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.: Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.: There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
