About Ryan
Ryan Lunn is a BACP counsellor who focuses on Systemic thinking alongside relational approaches. He works with people who are coping with grief and loss, stress and anxiety, LGBTQIA+ concerns and relationship difficulties. He aims to build a calm, non-judgemental space so people can speak honestly about what is happening for them.
Ryan trained with a BA Hons in Contemporary Relational Counselling and holds registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
Background and approach
He has three years of practice experience supporting people through change and difficult feelings. That experience includes work on depression, self-esteem and managing life transitions. In sessions he uses attachment-based and client-centred ideas alongside practical cognitive behavioural techniques.
This mix helps people understand patterns in relationships, notice unhelpful thinking, and find small steps that feel manageable. Conversations are straightforward and rooted in the client’s day-to-day life. He also pays attention to eating and body image concerns, trauma and abuse, ADHD and neurodiversity, and issues such as abandonment, codependency and communication problems.
Ryan aims to help people untangle repeated patterns and build coping skills that suit their situation. Ryan works online with people across the United Kingdom. He encourages questions about how therapy would fit into daily life and invites people to try an initial session to see how they feel.

Online support
How Ryan's approaches translate to online therapy
Systemic thinking looks at how relationships and roles shape what feels difficult. Online sessions can help people see patterns in how they interact with others and try new ways of relating, even when talking remotely.Attachment-based therapy focuses on how early connections influence current feelings and reactions. This approach helps when people struggle with trust, closeness or emotional regulation and often involves exploring relationship histories and safe ways to practise change.
Client-centred therapy puts the person's experience at the heart of sessions. The therapist listens without judgment, reflects what is said, and supports people to find their own answers rather than directing them.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Ryan will discuss different methods and decide together with the client which mix suits their goals and preferences. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions to what feels most useful.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues and longer conversations. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or when being off-camera helps concentration. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping the focus on meaningful progress.
