Take a Breath: A Modern Counselling Retreat in the Hampshire Countryside

Therapy that feels like a breath of fresh air—in every sense.
Nature has a way of helping us slow down, soften, and see things more clearly.
In a world that moves fast, even stopping for an hour can feel indulgent. But what if that hour wasn’t a luxury—what if it was a lifeline? A regular retreat from the noise. A space to reconnect with yourself, with nature, and with what matters most.
Welcome to Lynsey Berwick Counselling. Where therapy doesn’t feel clinical—it feels human. Rooted. Real. Like a conversation with someone who gets it, in a place where the air is just a bit easier to breathe.
A Retreat from the Everyday
Tucked away on a working farm just outside Wickham, I aim for my counselling space to feel more like a retreat than a clinic. You’ll arrive to birdsong, big skies, and the calming presence of animals—horses, cows, chickens, goats, and sheep—and leave feeling lighter, clearer, and more connected.
Whether we meet in-person or online every session is your invitation to step away from the noise and demands of daily life and into a calmer, grounded space. To stop performing. To feel.
Counselling, Supercharged by Nature
I take a modern and refreshing approach to therapy, blending professional talking therapy with the healing benefits of nature, movement, and a down-to-earth, personalised style.
In addition to in-room and online sessions, I offer walk-and-talk therapy—a calming, side-by-side alternative that many clients find grounding and freeing. Letting the rhythm of walking ease the pressure to “perform” or “get it right.” Nature does a lot of the work.
Welcome to your hour of calm
Who I Work With
I support adults facing a range of challenges including:
Anxiety, low mood, or burnout
Grief and loss
Perfectionism and people-pleasing
Workplace stress and redundancy
Feeling stuck, lost, or “not enough”
Many of my clients have tried to manage things alone for a long time. Counselling can feel daunting—but it doesn’t have to. My approach is warm, compassionate, and practical, rooted in real-life change, self-awareness, and self-compassion.
If you’re craving some space to think, talk, or just be—this could be the hour you give back to yourself.
What Clients Say
“You radiate an aura of calm; you’re a safe space for me to share.”
“Life-changing. I am all about boundaries without guilt now.”
“I feel more like myself again. Thank you for helping me undo negative thinking and stop people-pleasing.”
“Your support during my first experience with grief made all the difference.”
Why This Space Matters
This isn’t just therapy. It’s time that’s yours. Away from roles, expectations, and constant doing. A space where you’re heard. Fully. Where you can think, cry, laugh, be quiet—whatever you need.
And maybe for the first time in a while, just be.
Ready When You Are
It’s not always easy to ask for help. But when you’re ready, I’ll meet you there.
I believe therapy should feel like a conversation, not a clinical experience. Just two people, making space for what matters.
Therapy doesn’t need to be clinical. It can be real. Relational. Rooted in connection.
If you’re feeling stuck, heavy, or just ready to do life a little differently—let’s talk.
