Karen Lloyd, a warm and collaborative Integrative Therapist.
I understand asking for help is never easy. That's why my warm and collaborative approach creates a safe, confidential space where you can share anything, without judgement.
As an Integrative Therapist in my 30s, I understand that everyone is different and needs support in different ways. I offer in-person counselling in Stockport, Greater Manchester or remotely through video call or telephone.
If you're considering reaching out, I would be happy to offer a free 20–30 minute introductory call. This will allow us to discuss what’s going on for you and explore whether I’m the right counsellor to support you. After our introductory call, I offer a complimentary 30-minute taster session. This gives you the opportunity to experience the sessions firsthand and explore how we can work together to support your needs. I offer reduced fees based on individual circumstances.
Your life experiences make you the expert of your journey, and I see my role as one of partnership—working together to explore how I can support you in meaningful ways.
TESTIMONIALS
Client Review
"Karen is very kind and reassuring, creating a safe and relaxing atmosphere. She puts you at ease and has a calming effect, so that it is easier to open up when you are ready to.
She is very professional, but also extremely personable... a bit like having a friend who can help you in areas where your friends cannot!
Thank you Karen, for easing my journey through a very difficult personal time... which was exacerbated by the worsening of my Mum's dementia. I felt so desperate and alone and you made it all more bearable, helping me to find my way through, and helping me to handle my inner issues and lows with fibromyalgia as well. Thank you so much."
Client Review
"I started seeing Karen after the loss of my baby a week before Christmas. Back then I was so overwhelmed with grief I was struggling to cope, and also feeling extreme guilt for how my grief was affecting the rest of my family.
I started to have weekly sessions with Karen, who allowed me to take things at my own pace and made me feel extremely comfortable and at ease. She made me see that nothing I was feeling was bad or wrong.
She helped me with coping strategies and gave me tools to help myself along the way. I'm in a much better place now and although I will always grieve my little lost one, that grief is no longer overwhelming and consuming. Thank you Karen."
