PSYCHOTHERAPY

Uncover the benefits of psychotherapy

I am so pleased you have found your way to my psychotherapy page and are taking this time for yourself. Now you can start taking some positive steps towards feeling better. Through counselling we will work to lighten whatever it is that is weighing you down.

As a down to earth, compassionate therapist, I will make sure that you feel heard. I will ask you how the world looks to you today and how it will look and feel when you are happier. Working with your needs and your story, my aim is to actively enable you to move towards that ideal. Together, we will help you find your place in the world, so you feel more confident.

By working in a gentle and action-oriented way, you will gain an enhanced understanding of self. During our counselling sessions  you will learn a number of techniques and positive problem-solving tools to improve your sense of wellbeing. You will also discover kinder coping skills and how to put effective boundaries in place, so you are able to manage difficult situations.I live within a family where neurodivergence is the norm. This enables me to relate to a wide spectrum of thoughts and behaviours. I can help you to make sense of the thoughts and/or actions that are holding you back and motivate you towards positive change.

Feel happier

I am an experienced practitioner and have helped people with various medical diagnoses and/or who have a history of trauma. Taking a trauma-informed approach I help clients struggling with ACE’s, ASD, ADHD, PTSD, OCD, general anxiety disorder, depression, loss, low self-esteem and other challenges. I also help people who are trying to make sense of medical diagnoses such as BPD or EUPD. My clients all share one thing in common; they know they could feel happier in their lives.

Your psychotherapy sessions will take place in a relaxed manner from a cabin in my garden with light, peace and space. I aim to make the environment comfortable for you to allow for the best results from our work. Online appointments are also available should you prefer.

Your Thoughts Matter

Lois helped me understand what was going on when I found myself powerless and overwhelmed. Not just the what but the why. She didn’t judge nor let me spiral. Instead she offered clarity, compassion and a steady steer when I needed it most. Since working with her, every area of my life has improved. I trust her completely and can’t thank her enough. ”

“I went in to my therapy an emotional wreck and left with a completely different outlook. I managed to breakthrough some negative ideas and views that were a massive deal for me.
Lois is just so good at helping me untangle my brain and we made sense of my thoughts together. I move forward knowing she is there if I need her.”

“Today was a very difficult session for me, Lois handled it and me perfectly and gave me some really good focus points to use and work towards for my next session. I feel very comfortable working with Lois. She’s extremely good at what she does. She’s incredibly knowledgeable, not just in the theory, but in how to apply it in real day-to-day-life. “

My hope is for you to start feeling better very quickly and I will seek to review your progress frequently. My aim is to enable you to move forward, and this should become apparent after our first session. The frequency of your sessions can be completely determined by you. For some people, weekly counselling is where they want to begin, however, others prefer more space in between sessions.
