About Patrick
Patrick Lyttle is an NCPS counsellor in the United Kingdom with 20 years of experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, self-esteem, career questions and coping with life change. Patrick also works with people on abandonment, attachment issues, avoidant personality traits, commitment and control issues, and workplace concerns.
Patrick uses psychodynamic approaches to look at current problems alongside a person’s life history. He draws on attachment-based ideas to understand how early relationships shape later patterns. Mindfulness techniques are used to help people notice thoughts and feelings with less reactivity.
In sessions he aims to help clients learn and change so daily life improves. He talks through patterns that get people stuck and helps identify practical steps forward. Sessions include consideration of how work, mood and relationships interact.
Patrick has worked in organisational settings and private practice for many years. His training included time at King’s College London and the University of Oxford, and he holds NCPS accreditation. That background informs both short-term work and longer therapeutic conversations.
People often come for help with career direction, dealing with stress, or sorting recurring relationship patterns. He combines discussion of life history with present-day coping techniques to clarify goals and next steps. If unsure whether his approach fits, prospective clients can complete the short matching questionnaire to begin the process.

How key approaches work in online sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns of relating. In online sessions this can help people see recurring behaviours in work and relationships and try out new ways of connecting. Mindfulness Therapy teaches ways to notice thoughts and bodily reactions on purpose. Practising these skills in remote sessions helps people reduce impulsive reactions and steady difficult moments.Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. The therapist will discuss a person’s priorities, past experience and what feels most useful. Together they will choose whether to focus on childhood patterns, present coping skills or a mix of both, adapting as work progresses.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a working day, reduce travel, or allow shorter check-ins when time is limited. It also makes it possible to continue sessions while living overseas, since international clients are accepted. Registered or accredited professionals can discuss practical arrangements and help match the approach to the client’s life.
