I am an experienced integrative therapist, and I am trained in a range of modalities that will allow us to identify a tailor-made approach to help you overcome your unique challenges. I offer a warm, accepting presence, and work on the assumption that all successful therapy proceeds from a person-centred foundation based in empathy, positive regard and genuine concern for the welfare of my clients. Approaches offered include CBT, psychodynamic, and mindfulness-based therapy, and I am also a level 3-trained EMDR therapist. I also incorporate elements of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and schema therapy.

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.

Wakefield is a West Yorkshire city with a post-industrial character rooted in coal mining and textiles, and while the city has worked to develop a cultural identity anchored by significant art institutions—the Hepworth Wakefield gallery and the internationally renowned Yorkshire Sculpture Park are both located in and around the city—the underlying economic challenges of post-mining communities remain defining for many residents. NHS mental health services are provided through South West Yorkshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust, and a private therapy sector serves those who can access it. The legacy of deindustrialisation shapes how mental health is understood and accessed in an area where talking about struggle has not historically been normalised. Common therapy concerns include economic stress, depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, and the community identity challenges of a city whose artistic ambitions coexist with significant deprivation in some neighbourhoods.
