About Lalida

Lalida Puengklai is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship problems, grief and low self-esteem. She supports those affected by trauma and abuse, as well as people coping with anger, compassion fatigue and major life changes. Lalida speaks English and Thai and works with adults from varied backgrounds.

Her style is warm and straightforward. She aims to make sessions feel like a space where a person can breathe and speak without judgement.

Background and approach

She listens first, then helps identify patterns and practical ways to cope. Sessions may draw on different evidence-based techniques chosen to suit each person. Lalida trained at the University of Derby and holds a Master’s degree in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy.

She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - MBACP. Her background includes work in the NHS and charities supporting people affected by sexual and domestic abuse. In therapy she focuses on understanding how past experiences shape current responses.

The work looks at attachment, self-worth and coping strategies while building on existing strengths. The aim is not simply to manage symptoms but to help people feel more whole and able to move forward. Sessions are available online and internationally.

Lalida offers short and long-term pathways, tailoring the pace and techniques to each person’s needs. She encourages people to take the first step and explore what better coping might look like.

Everything Lalida lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

How approaches translate to online therapy

Integrative counselling blends elements from different evidence-based techniques to suit each person. In practice this means drawing on approaches such as cognitive behavioural ideas to spot unhelpful thinking and develop coping steps, and person-centred ways of listening that focus on the persons experience and values. These approaches help with anxiety, low mood, relationship hurts and trauma-related reactions.

Attachment-informed work looks at how early relationships influence current patterns. It helps people notice repeated ways of relating, understand where they come from and experiment with new ways of connecting and setting boundaries. This can be useful for issues like abandonment fears, jealousy, or dependence in relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose methods that match a persons needs, goals and preferences. Together they will try things, reflect on what helps, and adjust the plan as needed.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video works well for a full face-to-face conversation, phone can suit shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is limited, and text or chat can fit around busy days or offer more frequent, brief contact. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, study or family life while still getting professional support from registered or accredited professionals.
