Lynsey Hotchkies

Lynsey is is a counsellor and psychotherapist with over 20 years experience working both in private practice, the NHS and with various charities. 

From Lynsey:

I work with both individuals and groups and have undertaken a variety of different trainings which allows me to work pluralistically and to adapt to what you might bring to the work.  I aim to create a relationship within which we can work together creatively on arising issues.  The number of sessions can be time limited (for example 10 sessions) or open-ended.  During therapy many issues can arise from personal struggles, relationship issues, work issues as well as transitioning stages of life and finding purpose. 

Prior to training as a therapist I worked as a lawyer.  I have many years of experience as a senior manager within the charity sector as well as working as a trainer for psychotherapists and counsellors and a management and work coach.

During the first session there is an opportunity to experience some of the way that I work, answer questions and explore what has brought you to therapy.  Attending a first session is not an obligation to continue, but is exploratory. 

I am registered with UKCP and abide by their Code of Ethics.

I am currently taking referrals for psychotherapy or counselling, in person (Mondays in Peckham) or online.
