Maisie Lambert, BACP

Maisie Lambert is a counsellor with 11 years of experience working across a range of settings and age groups. She brings a consistently warm, non-patronising manner to her work and aims to balance genuine care with a light touch of humour when appropriate to help people feel at ease. Maisie practises with a person-centred foundation and has undertaken further training in creative therapy methods, meaning the work is guided by the client’s priorities and expressed needs rather than a fixed agenda.

Her practice focuses on the impact of early life experiences, exploring how protective internal defence mechanisms that once helped survival can become sources of ongoing pain. She has particular interest and experience with family dynamics, anxiety, low mood, trauma and abuse, and pregnancy and postpartum mental health, and she also works with issues such as parenting, self-esteem and attachment. Maisie supports clients dealing with blended family challenges, communication and relationship problems, and a variety of care-related stresses.

Maisie is a BACP member - indicating affiliation with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and she approaches each person without judgement, listening fully to what they bring. Her aim is to help clients discover what they need, collaboratively shaping the work so it fits each individual’s life and goals.

Person-Centred and Creative Approaches for Online Care

Maisie draws on person-centred counselling, a collaborative approach that focuses on the client’s own perspective and resources. This method emphasises empathetic listening and supports people working through anxiety, low mood, relationship and family concerns by helping them explore what matters most to them. She also uses creative therapy methods, which can include artful or expressive techniques adapted to the client’s comfort; these approaches offer alternative ways to process emotion and memory and can be helpful for trauma, attachment issues, and when words alone are difficult.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Maisie works alongside clients to identify which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. This collaborative attitude means techniques are shaped around each person rather than imposed, and adjustments are made as the work evolves.

Online therapy with Maisie is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to attend sessions from home or while travelling, support continuity of care across locations, and allow clients to choose the format that best suits their pace and comfort.
