About Marie
Marie Lloyd welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by life changes, loss, anxiety or low self worth. She writes in plain terms and aims to make the first steps into counselling straightforward. Marie emphasises helping each person find their own strengths and ways forward rather than telling them what to do.
Marie has worked in the UK for 12 years and holds BACP accreditation, which reflects professional membership with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
Background and approach
She draws on a range of approaches to match what a person needs in the moment. Sessions are conversational and focused on practical next steps as well as deeper meaning and values. Her practice often addresses stress, anxiety, grief, anger and adapting to major life changes.
She also supports people dealing with abandonment, attachment issues, illness, carer stress and communication problems. Marie is experienced working with trauma, bereavement and the long term effects of difficult relationships. In session she uses Client-Centred methods to listen and reflect, Cognitive Behavioural techniques to spot thinking patterns, and Existential ideas to help people consider life choices and meaning.
The work can combine short-term strategies with longer exploration depending on what feels right. Marie offers sessions in English and accepts people in the United Kingdom and international clients. She encourages a collaborative process where goals are agreed together and reviewed over time.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Existential Therapy helps people look at meaning, choice and responsibility in their lives. It suits those facing big changes, loss or questions about their path and identity. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current responses and helps people understand patterns in closeness and trust.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marie will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and then suggest ways of working together. That plan can be adapted over time so practical strategies and deeper exploration are balanced to fit what helps most.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging for flexibility. Video allows face-to-face conversation, phone can be easier when bandwidth is low, chat works for brief check-ins and text messaging suits ongoing notes or short reflections. These options make it simpler to fit counselling around work, caring duties and travel without losing therapeutic continuity.
