About Lyndsey McCartney

Lyndsey McCartney is an integrated counsellor and life coach licensed in Northern Ireland who specialises in bereavement and loss. She works with people facing the death of a loved one - including the loss of a child - and recognises that grief can also follow the death of a pet or major life changes such as the end of a marriage, a decline in health, or the loss of employment. Her practice also addresses a broad range of emotional and interpersonal concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, parenting challenges, and career-related stress.

Her therapeutic presence is warm and interactive, grounded in respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and she avoids reducing people to stigmatizing labels. Her approach blends cognitive-behavioural techniques with humanistic and psychodynamic perspectives alongside psychoeducational elements, allowing sessions to be tailored to each individual’s needs and goals. Lyndsey aims to help clients learn about and better understand their mental health and wellbeing while developing practical coping strategies.

She holds BACP and NCPS credentials, which indicate recognised professional qualifications in counselling. Lyndsey supports and empowers people who are ready to take steps toward greater fulfilment and wellbeing, offering a collaborative and personalised path through change.
