About Marie
Marie Lloyd is a counsellor and psychotherapist registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has 12 years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, grief, anger, low self-esteem and coping with life changes. Marie also lists blended family issues among her focus areas. She offers direct, practical support for people who are feeling overwhelmed by change or loss.
Marie uses a mix of talking therapies to help people make sense of difficult experiences. She listens to what matters most to the individual and builds on existing strengths. Sessions typically involve looking at patterns in thoughts, feelings and relationships, and trying out different ways of responding to stressful situations.
Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current reactions. She also uses client-centred ways of working that keep the person’s perspective central. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) techniques are used when helpful to manage anxiety and negative thinking.
Marie also works with issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, communication problems, codependency, caregiver stress and coping with serious illness. She can discuss grief, bereavement and trauma-related concerns in accessible language and pacing suited to the individual.
Marie accepts international clients and runs therapy in English. To begin, prospective clients are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Fees vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How Marie uses different approaches online
Marie draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationship patterns still affect emotional responses. This approach can help with loyalty conflicts, trust issues and patterns that repeat in close relationships.She also uses Client-Centred Therapy which focuses on the person’s own perspective and experience. That means sessions often follow what the client finds most pressing rather than a rigid agenda. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is used to identify and test unhelpful thoughts and to develop new coping strategies for anxiety and stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marie will discuss goals and try methods collaboratively, adjusting what they do as the therapy progresses. The choice of techniques will depend on the client’s needs, preferences and how they respond in early sessions.
Session formats are not detailed in the supplied biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life by removing travel, allowing shorter check-ins and making it possible to schedule around work or childcare. Registered and accredited professionals offering remote sessions can use these practical advantages to help clients maintain regular contact and work steadily on blending new household routines.
