About Me
Lavinia May
Psychotherapist
Introduction
Hi, I'm Lavinia, a couples therapist in Sandbach, Cheshire, and online.
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, helping partners improve communication, work through recurring conflict, rebuild trust and feel closer again. I also offer individual therapy for adults navigating anxiety, low mood, self-esteem, burnout and life transitions.
My approach is warm, honest and practical. Together, we'll make sense of what's happening, understand the patterns keeping you stuck, and identify small, realistic steps towards meaningful change.
I use evidence-informed tools and techniques without the jargon. Sessions are real conversations with direction: we'll agree on goals together, explore what's working and adapt our approach to your needs.
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: Autumn is here - and so is 20% off all therapy sessions.
Your first session
Your first session is a 50-minute conversation about what's been happening and what you'd like to change. For couples, it's an opportunity for both partners to share their perspectives, explore their goals and get a feel for my approach. It's also a chance for us to see whether we're a good fit, with no obligation to continue.
Sessions are £90 for couples and £60 for individuals, in person in Sandbach or online.
Insurance accepted: Bupa, Aviva, WPA and Vitality.
To book your first session, visit www.lm-harmonytherapy.com or send me a message here.
I look forward to hearing from you.
