About Gwennie Lewis

Gwennie Lewis is a warm, down-to-earth therapist who combines a holistic, integrative outlook with practical psychotherapeutic techniques to help people make sense of how past experiences influence present-day feelings and behaviour. She works alongside clients to build confidence in recognising and discussing emotions, and to deepen understanding of identity and relationship patterns. Gwennie uses a blend of person-centred practice and cognitive behavioural methods, together with other therapeutic approaches, to support clients in making choices that feel right for them.

With six years of professional experience in the United Kingdom, Gwennie has supported people with a wide range of concerns, including trauma and abuse, relationship difficulties, parenting and fostering challenges, depression, anxiety, self-esteem, motivation and confidence. She focuses on creating an open, non-judgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be shared, and where mutual trust helps clients feel both listened to and heard.

Outside of therapy work, Gwennie enjoys creative arts and film, and she has a longstanding commitment to community service. She has served on several local boards, including two schools, Rape Crisis and a community centre, and she was a foster mother for around ten years. Her training includes a Level 5 Professional Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling, a Level 3 Certificate in Integrated Counselling and a Certificate in CBT for depression, anxiety, panic attacks and phobias. Gwennie is a member of NCPS - the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society - and her organisation holds membership with BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support

Gwennie draws on several evidence-informed approaches to guide online work in ways that fit each person's needs. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how they shape current connections - it can be helpful for people dealing with abandonment, attachment issues or recurring relationship difficulties. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, non-judgmental space where the client is treated as the expert on their own life - this approach supports self-exploration, self-esteem and decisions about personal values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviours - it is often used for anxiety, depression, stress and sleeping difficulties.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Gwennie works collaboratively with each person to explore which methods best match their goals, preferences and day-to-day realities, and adapts the work as needs evolve.

Online therapy with registered professionals offers flexibility and accessibility, allowing people to meet by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, family and other commitments, while still receiving ongoing, consistent support from a therapist.
