ABOUT ALLEVIATE CARE
Helping you find your best place in the world, one step at a time
Meet Lois Daniels-Ekarte HG.Dip.P, MHGI, LLB
Hi, I’m Lois and I am the founder of Alleviate Care. I am a qualified and registered Psychotherapist and Care Business Owner living in Warwick.
It makes me smile that when we’re asked about ourselves, we often talk about our education. Although this is part of our story, it can be so far removed from who we eventually become. When I qualified in Law from University with an academic ticket under my belt I started to focus on what I actually wanted to do.
The drive to nurture
At school my teacher, Mr Freeman, gave me my only detention for saying I wanted to be a Mum as a profession. What he perceived as a lack of sincerity was what I was most passionate about- the drive to nurture others. This has remained a constant in my life. Before becoming a mother, I enjoyed corporate life in London and prospered in a fast-moving job. Although not feeding my soul, it taught me about money and other vital life lessons, and that felt good in my 20s.
Fast forward to today and I have three children, a cherished partner and two much-loved dogs. That space in the middle has helped my journey so far. There have been the swings and roundabouts that life brings. Like many of us, I drifted away from what’s important to me and temporarily lost touch with my core values. This is how life works. We get things wrong and that’s OK because this provides opportunities for learning, reappraisal and progress.
Since 2014 I have taken this belief and the great value I place on family, care, honesty and authenticity to build the foundations of my business. I now happily forego the fast-paced corporate life of my early years, for work which meets my emotional needs and is consistent with my values.
To give a gift of support, positivity and hope, is the best gift I can give and it’s what I strive to do daily. I don’t want or need the fairy tale story, but I do want the happily ever after for all of us.
Thought for the Season…
Worrying doesn’t take away tomorrow’s troubles, it takes away today’s peace.
Services
Care starts with you. I endeavour to understand your specific needs, supporting your journey to a more peaceful and purposeful life. See how my psychotherapy and domiciliary care services can help you.
Psychotherapy
Working with your needs and story, my aim is to actively enable you to move forward. Psychotherapy gives you techniques and an understanding of how you can support your present life and future.
Domiciliary Care
As an experienced carer, I understand the frustrations that can arise around becoming older or from a change in health. Domiciliary care alleviates such frustrations for both the individual and their family.
