About Lily

Lily offers consultations in person for individuals and relationship counselling for couples. She has developed an effective, holistic approach which has grown out of many years of her own personal exploration of what really works. Over twenty years of journeying, both inner and outer, has led her to train with some of the leading lights of personal development.

Her work is grounded in her personal experience of, and professional training in, Transactional Analysis psychotherapy. The themes of her earlier business roles in public relations and communication have focused on building relationships, her love of people and of the natural world. Since setting up her professional coaching practice more than a decade ago, Lily’s working time is now spent between her private counselling and psychotherapy clients, writing, and facilitating workshops.

Lily’s passion is to share with her clients a powerful toolkit for creating profound change that she practices herself. With a wealth of experience, insight and compassion, she will support you in your unique, unfolding process. Her work is about connection; with ourselves, with each other and the world we belong to. It is about remembering that you are important, worthy and valuable. So that you can rediscover the health, wholeness and peace that has always been at the centre of your being.

Client comments:

“Thank you so much, Lily, for the work we have done together. So much has changed since I first came to see you. I was feeling confused and miserable....having problems with anxiety and difficulties with my relationship. Now, everything is so different… I’m not even quite sure how it has happened…My marriage is much happier … I’m better at work… I feel calmer and more confident. I would recommend you to anyone in a heartbeat”.

“The sessions I had with you have helped me immensely.....I don’t know where I would have been today if I hadn’t picked up the phone that day, so I wanted to say thank you. If I have any issues in the future, I will be sure to come and see you.“

“When I made that first appointment, I had no idea what therapy would be like - I needn’t have worried!  Lily, you were calm and reassuring and helped me to understand myself and my problems better. I’ve made some really good changes.”
