Marie Lloyd
Calm, clear support for stress and life change
About Marie
Marie Lloyd works with individuals facing stress, anxiety, grief, anger and low self-esteem. She supports people who are coping with big life changes and with the strain that follows loss or difficult decisions. Marie introduces a calm, straightforward style aimed at helping people make small, manageable changes.
She draws on 12 years of experience to tailor conversations to each person’s situation. Sessions focus on identifying patterns that cause distress and finding practical ways to respond differently.
Background and approach
The aim is to build on strengths clients already have so they can face challenges with more confidence. Marie uses several therapy approaches to suit different needs. She blends techniques that look at attachment and relationships, work that centres the client’s own goals, and strategies to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.
This mix helps with emotional reactions, relationship strain, and everyday worries. People often come to discuss bereavement, trauma, work pressures, or health-related decisions. Marie also supports those dealing with abandonment issues, caregiver stress, communication problems, and conditions such as autism or personality-related concerns.
She responds to each topic with clear, steady attention. Sessions are offered in English and available to people in the United Kingdom and internationally. Marie is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and frames therapy as a collaborative process.
She invites people to take the first step and explore what might help them move forward.

Therapeutic approaches and online support
Marie commonly uses Attachment-Based work, Client-Centred therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) in her online practice. Attachment-Based approaches look at how early relationships shape current emotional responses and help people change patterns in how they relate to others. Client-Centred therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and pace, with the counsellor offering warmth and attentive listening to help clients clarify what matters to them. CBT examines unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and teaches practical steps to reduce anxiety and improve coping.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marie will discuss methods with each person and decide together what fits best based on needs and preferences. That collaborative process helps personalise sessions so they feel useful and relevant.
Online therapy with Marie is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls support face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues, phone sessions can be used when bandwidth is limited or for a straightforward check-in, live chat is useful for shorter back-and-forth work, and messaging suits people who prefer to write and reflect between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while keeping the focus on progress.
