Marie Floyd , BACP, NCPS

Marie Floyd is a UK-based, trauma-informed integrative counsellor with 15 years of professional experience. She holds BACP and NCPS credentials, indicating recognised professional standing in counselling and psychotherapy. Marie works from a strengths-informed perspective, believing that people are the experts in their own lives and already carry resources that can be developed to meet current challenges.

Her practice draws on an integrative framework that weaves together different therapeutic methods to suit each person's needs, with particular experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, major life changes, family conflict and depression. Marie has extensive service experience, having worked for Mind as a counsellor, counselling coordinator and mental health group facilitator. She has also provided counselling for Turning Point, supporting clients with dependency and binge use of alcohol and drugs, and worked with patients at a homeless GP surgery alongside maintaining a private practice.

In sessions she aims to explore how past and present experiences shape wellbeing, identify recurring patterns, build self-awareness, and develop practical coping strategies. As a trauma-informed practitioner she also offers the Rewind Technique, an imagery-based method used to address traumatic memories. Marie provides tailored, integrative support intended to help people move toward greater resilience and clearer next steps.

Therapeutic approaches and remote support

Marie draws on client-centered therapy to create a collaborative, non-judgmental space where the person s experience guides the pace and focus of work - this approach helps with self-exploration, building self-esteem and navigating relationship or life transition issues. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a practical method that identifies unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and helps develop alternative coping strategies for anxiety, depression and stress-related problems. In addition, Marie integrates trauma-focused techniques that address the impact of traumatic experiences and support recovery from intrusive memories and trauma-related symptoms.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Marie treats that as a collaborative conversation. She will work with each client to assess needs, goals and preferences and then adapt methods so therapy fits the individual rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy with Marie is available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, offering flexibility to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access support from different locations, and choose the format that best supports personal engagement and progress.
