More about Lalage

Hello and welcome :) As an Integrative therapist, I’m trained and experienced in most major therapeutic approaches, and can choose and blend these as best suits your individual needs: This means I will be working in partnership with you to find the best way to approach the questions and the problems you might be bringing to therapy.

This might involve reflective practices; for example, keeping a diary or creative journal, or we might explore your thoughts and behaviours and what underlying beliefs are driving them. However, as each working relationship unfolds, it will be a collaboration, grounded in a relationship based on respect, honesty and care.

I've been a therapist since 2007 and have worked online for over a decade, so I'm experienced in supporting people open up safely online.

I work with people experiencing a wide range of issues, including:

Feeling overwhelmed and unable to cope or concentrate

An inability to deal with stress or recover from stressful situations

Lack of confidence, excessive shyness or low self esteem

Feelings of depression, sadness, grief or emptiness

Anxiety, panic attacks, mood swings and phobias

Debilitating feelings of anger or fear

Difficulty making or sustaining relationships, or repeatedly becoming involved in unsatisfying or destructive relationships

Identity issues

Sexuality and gender issues

Difficulties in coming to terms with losses such as bereavement, separation or loss of employment

Traumatic past events and experiences

Self-harm and self-harming behaviours

Obsessive behaviour

Therapy can also be a proactive choice to:

Understand longstanding patterns of behaviour and thought which may no longer be helpful

Challenge blocks to creativity and facilitate personal development and growth

Explore beliefs, hopes and ambitions for the future and their achievement​

I am always humbled by people’s capacity for renewal and recovery from the most challenging and painful experiences. I see my role as offering the most respectful, empathic, informed and honest therapeutic relationship I can.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
