About Lalida
Lalida Puengklai offers support for common and difficult problems such as stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, grief, anger, coping with life changes and compassion fatigue. She also helps people facing issues like abandonment, attachment concerns, body image, dissociation, domestic violence, family problems, guilt and shame, isolation and multicultural challenges.
Lalida greets clients warmly and aims to build a genuine connection from the first meeting. She listens first and works with each person to understand how past events shape present reactions.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on gentle exploration of feelings and patterns, and on finding strengths that already exist. The aim is not simply to fix things but to help people feel more whole and able to move forward. Lalida trained in integrative counselling and psychotherapy and holds membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
She has three years of professional experience and has worked in the NHS and in charities supporting people affected by sexual and domestic abuse. Her way of working draws on a mix of approaches so sessions are tailored to the individual. She emphasises listening without judgement and helping clients uncover practical ways to cope and heal.
Lalida is comfortable working with adults across a broad range of emotional and psychological concerns. She is based in the United Kingdom and speaks English and Thai. International clients are accepted.

How Lalida works online
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with each client and agree together what feels most helpful. This is a collaborative process that adapts as goals and needs become clearer.
Practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into busy days and the ability to see a counsellor from a different location, including internationally. Online work can also make regular check-ins simpler when balancing work or family commitments. Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered and what will work best for your routine.
