Mike Lloyd

Mike Lloyd is a counsellor who focuses on practical, straightforward support. He helps people who are struggling with relationship stress, low self-esteem, career worries, anger and depression. He offers a calm, non-judgemental presence to help people talk through what matters most to them.

He works in a way that aims to make talking feel easier. Sessions are set up so people can share thoughts and feelings without fear of being judged. Mike encourages clear goals and small steps that fit everyday life.

With six years of professional experience, he draws on approaches that keep conversations simple and useful. He uses Client-Centred Therapy to follow each person’s lead, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking patterns, and Solution-Focused Therapy to identify practical next steps. These methods are used to address concerns like intimacy issues, family problems, coping with life changes, and impulsivity.

Mike is registered with BACP and NCPS, which are listed as his credentials. He works from the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English. He does not take international clients at this time.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability. The service uses a subscription that can be cancelled at any time, and cost varies with location and the therapist’s arrangements.

How his approaches translate to online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy means the counsellor follows the person’s lead, listening closely and reflecting back what matters to them. This helps when someone needs space to talk about relationships, family issues or anger without a set agenda.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and testing small changes in behaviour. It is useful for worries about mood, low self-esteem and coping with life changes because it breaks problems into clear, manageable steps.

Solution-Focused Therapy looks for what is already working and builds practical next steps. It is a short-term, goal-orientated way to move forward when someone wants clear actions and quick progress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss options and agree a plan that fits the client's needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative decision and can be adjusted as therapy proceeds.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Online meetings can make it easier to attend regular sessions around work or family commitments, or to choose a quieter check-in when needed. Confirm the current session options before booking so you know which formats are available and can pick what fits your life.
