Tess Lambourne , NCPS

Tess Lambourne is a person-centred therapist with three years of clinical experience who brings a calm, grounded presence to her work. Holding the NCPS credential - a recognized qualification in counselling and psychotherapy - she draws on a person-centred stance to create space for people to be themselves and to explore their experiences without judgement. Tess also trained as a yoga teacher and integrates an emphasis on embodiment and present-moment awareness into her approach when it suits a client’s needs.

Tess works with a range of concerns including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem struggles, and the challenges that come with life change. She has additional focus on issues such as attachment and abandonment, codependency, relationship and communication difficulties, dissociation and feelings of emptiness, and areas linked to kink and alternative sex culture. Her aim is to help people feel more present, grounded, embodied, and empowered in daily life.

Based in the United Kingdom and offering therapy in English, Tess creates an accepting, nonjudgemental environment that supports self-awareness and practical growth. Please note Tess is not currently accepting new clients.

Person-Centred and Embodied Approaches for Online Therapy

Tess primarily practices client-centred therapy, an approach that emphasizes empathy, active listening, and respect for the client’s own pace and priorities. In this way of working the therapist offers a nonjudgemental presence and supports clients to find their own insights, which can be particularly helpful for stress, anxiety, self-esteem concerns, and life transitions.

She also brings embodied awareness from her training as a yoga teacher into therapeutic conversations when appropriate. This can mean gentle attention to breath, bodily sensations, and grounding strategies that help people feel more present and connected during moments of overwhelm or dissociation.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Tess works with each person to identify what feels most helpful based on their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts techniques over time so therapy remains relevant and practical.

Online sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility and make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. These options allow people to access consistent support from licensed professionals and therapists without the need to travel, making ongoing care more manageable and accessible.
