About Lindsey Wheeler
Lindsey Wheeler is a United Kingdom based therapist with 10 years of clinical experience who works with adults, couples and groups. She holds BACP accreditation - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which is the professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the UK. Her practice draws on a wide background of supporting people from diverse communities, including several years working within a Therapeutic Community in a prison setting and a long previous career as a prison officer.
She currently focuses on supporting people who have ADHD and those in relationships with partners who have ADHD, and she has developed a particular interest in understanding narcissistic dynamics and scapegoating in close relationships. Lindsey also has experience helping clients with anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma, sexual and domestic abuse, physical abuse and neglect, bullying or being scapegoated, grief and loss, motivation, self-esteem and confidence.
She understands how disorienting and painful it can be to lose direction in life, and she works from the belief that people carry strengths they can draw on when facing uncertainty. Lindsey aims to help clients identify those strengths, manage the challenges they face and move toward a more fulfilling life. She approaches that work with empathy, practical focus and a commitment to meeting people where they are.

Therapeutic approaches for online care
Lindsey integrates a range of evidence-informed approaches to address relationships, trauma and personal challenges. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused method that helps people process distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity, often used when past experiences continue to affect daily life. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns influence current connections and communication, and it can be especially helpful for people struggling with intimacy, abandonment or recurring relationship difficulties. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports clients in clarifying personal values and developing practical skills to accept difficult thoughts while taking committed action toward meaningful goals, which can aid issues like anxiety, low motivation and self-esteem.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey and Lindsey works collaboratively to discover what fits each client's needs, goals and preferences. She will discuss options, adapt methods over time and involve the client in decisions about the pace and focus of therapy.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for people with busy schedules, mobility limits or those living at a distance. These options make it easier to access consistent support while fitting therapy around everyday commitments.
