Introduction

 

Hi, I’m Lavinia, 
If you’re feeling anxious, stuck in unhelpful patterns, or like the same argument keeps looping, you’re not alone. My approach is kind, collaborative and practical: we’ll understand what’s driving the difficulty and create small, doable steps that make everyday life feel lighter.

I draw on evidence-based tools (CBT/ACT, attachment informed work, emotion-focused & systemic ideas for couples) without the jargon. Sessions feel like real conversations with structure: we set goals together, track what’s helping, and adapt as we go.

I can help with: anxiety & overwhelm, low mood, self-criticism, life transitions, stress/burnout, family & in-law boundaries, communication, trust ruptures, intimacy, and repair after conflict.

Practicalities: 50-minute sessions • Online or in person in my Sandbach office • Individual & Couples.

Next step: I offer a free 15-minute call-no pressure, just a chance to ask questions and get a feel for working together. . Don’t Miss Out – 20% Off All Sessions, But Hurry!

Looking forward to connecting with you and supporting your journey to a more mindful and enriched life.
