Georgina Lloyd
Counsellor/Therapist, MSW, LCSW
I specialise in crisis, trauma, anxiety, and supporting individuals and families living with chronic illness. I use well-established therapeutic approaches tailored to each client’s needs, helping individuals develop insight, resilience, and meaningful, lasting change. I work with children, teens, and adults. I am one of fewer than 10 providers of Accelerated Resolution Therapy in the UK, have assisted in ART trainings in the USA and also offer ART consultation/ support to new clinicians. I also offer TF-CBT, and other talk therapies.
If you're feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck in pain from past experiences, you're not alone and you don’t have to face it alone. I offer a safe, compassionate space to begin healing. Together, we’ll work at your pace. When you're ready, I’m here to help, reach out and let’s take that first step.

Emma Dean
Therapist, MA Hons, DipCaH, PNLP
I’m Emma, and I work with people who are ready to explore themselves more deeply — to uncover what’s holding them back, heal old patterns, and create meaningful, lasting change.
I offer integrative, person-centred therapy that honours the connection between mind, body and soul. Drawing from different approaches including hypnotherapy, ACT, breathwork, somatic practices, mindfulness, NLP and EFT, I tailor each session to your individual needs. I also specialise in psychedelic integration and transpersonal exploration.
I work with anxiety, trauma, low self-worth, burnout, grief and life transitions, supporting sensitive and self-aware individuals who feel stuck or disconnected and are seeking deeper change.
Sessions are collaborative, trauma-aware and paced around you. I offer therapy online and in person in Fareham, Hampshire, with a free 20-minute discovery call to explore whether we’re a good fit.

Lavinia May
Counsellor/Therapist, MNCPS (Acc.)
Hi, I'm Lavinia.
If you and your partner keep having the same argument, feel disconnected, or find yourselves walking on eggshells - you're not alone, and things can change.
I specialise in couples therapy, and also work with individuals. My approach is warm, honest and practical: we'll make sense of what's going on between you, and build small, realistic steps that help your relationship feel easier, closer and more like you again.
I use proven tools and techniques - without the jargon. Sessions feel like real conversations with direction: we set goals together, track what's working, and adapt as we go.
I work with couples and individuals navigating: recurring arguments & communication breakdowns · trust & repair after conflict · intimacy & emotional disconnection · anxiety creeping into the relationship · family & in-law boundaries · life transitions & burnout · reconnecting after a rough patch
Practicalities: 50-minute sessions • Online or in person in my Sandbach office • Individual & Couples. 🎁 20% Off All Therapy Sessions: Summer is here - and so is 20% off all therapy sessions. Let's make it count!
Next step: Introductory Session
50 minutes | Individuals & Couples
The first step is an initial session together - a relaxed conversation to get to know each other, hear a little about what's been going on, and explore how I may be able to support you. There's no pressure or commitment at this stage. Prefer to skip the Introductory Session? You're welcome to book your first therapy session directly.

I am a globally certified relationship and marriage coach, licensed Counsellor, seasoned Therapist. My years of hands-on experience cut across relationship therapy, marital counselling, business coaching, career mentorship, grief/trauma/addiction recovery, etc.
I possess grandiose expertise in listening, absorbing and analyzing human problems without prejudice. As an individual who has experienced life from all angles (right from a tender age), I am apparently in a better position to counsel and admonish individuals who battle with depression, anxiety, retrogression/set backs, financial turmoils, addiction, emotional/domestic abuse, rejection, youthful exuberance, juvenile delinquency, child abuse, marital/family crisis, etc.
My professional background makes me capable of being a great confidant and less judgmental. My sense of humor often gives my clients a soothing sigh of relief, irrespective of the burden at hand.
I also provide spiritual counselling services for deeper issues beyond basic comprehension.

Online in Southend-on-Sea, England (Online Only)
Southend-on-Sea is a large coastal town in Essex on the Thames Estuary, where mental health demand reflects a mix of seaside resort identity and significant areas of socioeconomic deprivation, with some inner-town neighbourhoods ranking among the most deprived in the East of England. NHS Talking Therapies services are available through the local trust, though wait times can be long, and a private therapy sector serves those who can access it. The town draws both long-term residents and London commuters, and the pressures of local employment challenges alongside the demands of commuter life shape the kinds of concerns people bring to therapy. Private practitioners are also available in neighbouring Leigh-on-Sea and Westcliff-on-Sea for those seeking faster access.
