About Lynda

I know what it feels like when life throws everything up into the air.

A few years ago, I found myself in a rut — uncertain, searching for something more. Through counselling, I found my strength, my voice, and my way out. That experience inspired me to retrain as a person-centred counsellor so I could help others do the same.

I offer counselling in Epping, Essex and online across the UK, working with people facing depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, domestic abuse, and relationship difficulties.

“The satisfaction of helping others navigate through their own struggles is amazing. It’s not always easy, but it’s always worth it.”

Grief & Bereavement

Loss affects us all differently. A safe, compassionate space to process grief and find a way to carry on, in your own time.

Stress & Overwhelm

When work, life and responsibilities pile up, I help you find strategies to manage stress and reclaim a sense of calm and control.

What Clients Say

5-star reviews from real clients

“Lynda’s counselling has made a profound and emphatically positive difference to my life, and helped me through one of the lowest and most challenging periods of my mental health. She is kind, personable, professional, and has a remarkable skill at encouraging self-growth through the safe space she provides. I have been with her for over half a year now, and the difference between how I was and how I am now is night and day. I am forever grateful to her.”

— T  ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“I was very nervous about attending my first session as I didn’t really know what to expect. Lynda put me at ease within seconds and I found her very easy to speak and open up to. Her approach was very engaging and empathetic and I felt more in control of my situation.”

— D  ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“I attended counselling here with L. Dorbin and it was genuinely the best decision I’ve made. She helped me with the issues I originally attended for and gave me the tools to tackle anything else life throws at me. If you want a kind, professional and easy to talk to counsellor I couldn’t recommend anyone higher.”

— J  ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
