About Aaron
BACP. Four years' professional experience. Aaron Lewis works with people on addictions, relationships, self-esteem, motivation and professional coaching using plain, conversational counselling.
Aaron uses client-centred methods to listen and reflect what matters to each person. He also draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to look at thoughts and behaviours, and employs mindfulness and hypnotherapy tools where helpful. Sessions focus on practical change and clearer thinking rather than jargon.
People come to him for anxiety, stress, depression and managing life changes. He also supports those facing grief, trauma and compassion fatigue. Additional areas of interest include attachment and abandonment concerns, adoption and foster care issues, neurodiversity such as autism and Asperger syndrome, and sexual culture matters including BDSM and kink.
His work includes help with parenting strain, career decisions, chronic illness and caregiver stress. He offers support for intimacy-related worries, anger, codependency and co-morbidity. Aaron lists ADHD among the topics he addresses alongside executive coaching for professional clients.
Sessions are practical and conversational. He aims to help people notice unhelpful patterns, try small changes, and build coping skills. The first meeting is used to understand goals and agree next steps. To start, follow the online counselling options and complete the short matching questionnaire to schedule a first session.
How his approaches translate to online counselling
Aaron commonly uses client-centred work and cognitive behavioural therapy online. Client-centred counselling focuses on listening and reflecting to help people clarify what matters to them; it is useful for relationship concerns, low self-esteem and motivation. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at patterns of thinking and behaviour and aims to try practical changes; it is often used for anxiety, stress and depression.Finding the right approach is part of the process. He will discuss goals and preferences in early sessions and agree together which methods to try. This is a collaborative decision that can change as work progresses and priorities shift.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking via the online counselling options and questionnaire. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around work or family life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Aaron uses these practical benefits to help sessions fit everyday routines rather than requiring big schedule changes.
