About Marie
Marie Lloyd is a BACP counsellor and psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom with 12 years of professional experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, grief, anger, low self-esteem and the practical fallout of life changes. Her approach is straightforward and practical, aimed at helping people manage strong feelings and difficult situations.
She describes the person who comes to her as the expert on their own experience. Sessions focus on identifying strengths and using them to find clearer ways forward. That can mean talking through the build-up of anger, understanding triggers at work or home, or learning ways to reduce constant worry.
Marie uses several clinical approaches in sessions. She draws on client-centred listening to help people feel heard, attachment-based ideas to look at relationship patterns, and cognitive behavioural techniques to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. These methods are used in simple, practical ways rather than technical theory.
Her work often deals with big life moments such as bereavement, a medical diagnosis, or major choices about relationships and career. She also supports people coping with long-term stresses like caregiving or recurring conflict. Conversations typically move between understanding past patterns and trying small, concrete changes in the present.
Marie asks people to treat therapy as a collaboration. Early sessions clarify what matters most, then a plan is agreed that fits day-to-day life. She accepts clients from outside the UK as well as within the country, and sessions are held in English.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Marie often uses client-centred work, attachment-based ideas and cognitive behavioural techniques in sessions. Client-centred work focuses on careful listening and reflecting so people can find their own answers; it helps when someone needs clarity about feelings and decisions. Attachment-based ideas look at how early relationship patterns influence current reactions, useful for repeated anger or closeness issues. Cognitive behavioural techniques break down thoughts, feelings and behaviours into manageable steps to test new ways of responding to triggers.Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the work. Marie will help clients and therapists decide what fits best based on needs, goals and preferences. That means early sessions review what is causing distress, try a few ways of working and adjust the plan together as progress is seen.
The practical benefits of remote sessions include fitting therapy into busy schedules and reducing travel time. When session formats are not specified in the biography, confirm which options are offered before booking. Online work can allow shorter check-ins, easier scheduling around work breaks and sessions that do not require being on camera if that helps with focus. Registered or accredited professionals can use these formats to make it simpler to keep therapy part of everyday life.
