About Ryan
Ryan Lunn is a counsellor who uses relationship-focused approaches to help people through hard times. He is BACP registered and has a BA Hons in Contemporary Relational Counselling with three years of practice. He aims to make beginning therapy feel manageable and approachable for someone taking that first step.
He creates a warm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about what matters most to them. Sessions tend to focus on how relationships, past attachments, and current thoughts affect daily life.
Background and approach
He listens closely to understand each person’s unique story before suggesting ways forward. Ryan works with issues such as grief and bereavement, stress and anxiety, depression, and eating and body-image concerns. He also helps people navigate LGBT-related challenges, relationship difficulties, career worries, and life changes that feel overwhelming.
ADHD, attachment concerns and trauma-related issues are part of his practice too. His approach draws on attachment-based ideas, client-centred listening, and cognitive behavioural techniques. Mindfulness and emotionally focused work are used where they suit a person’s goals.
He explains methods plainly and involves people in choosing what to try. Ryan is based in the United Kingdom and offers therapy in English. If someone wants to begin, he asks them to use the site process to match and schedule a session.
He aims to support people step by step as they work through change.

How Ryan works online
Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try small, practical experiments to change them. CBT can be helpful for anxiety, low mood, and coping with life changes by offering straightforward tools to manage symptoms between sessions.
Choosing the best approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and life circumstances and help decide which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and plans can be revised as therapy progresses.
Confirm available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list them explicitly. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow people to meet from different locations. It can also allow shorter check-ins or work without a camera when that is helpful.
