Marie Lloyd , BACP

Marie Lloyd is a UK-licensed counsellor and psychotherapist with 12 years of professional experience, and she holds BACP membership - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Working with people facing stress, anxiety, grief and anger, she offers focused support for self-esteem concerns and coping with major life changes. Her practice also addresses a broad range of complex difficulties including childhood trauma, PTSD, complex bereavement, relationship problems, sexual and domestic abuse, self-harm and suicidal thoughts, as well as work-related stress and coming to terms with life-limiting medical diagnoses.

Her additional focus covers attachment and abandonment issues, challenges related to autism and Asperger syndrome, personality-related concerns such as avoidant or antisocial traits, blended family dynamics, caregiver strain, codependency and communication or control difficulties. Marie also works with people facing cancer, natural or human-caused disasters, and other co-morbid conditions where multiple challenges intersect.

Marie approaches therapy from a perspective that recognises each person as the expert on their own experience. She aims to help clients identify strengths that can be drawn on to navigate difficult moments, and she collaborates with them to build practical coping strategies. She encourages and honours the courage it takes to begin therapy and supports clients at every step of the process.
