Psychotherapy with Scott Lacey

+ Henry the friendly, emotional support cavoodle

Scott Lacey offers both face-to-face psychotherapy and online therapy.

I was drawn to personal therapy at a time of life when I was struggling to make sense of my experience at the conclusion of an important relationship. In therapy, I learnt through my grief, how my old wounds show up in relationships, and how by developing my self-awareness I can self-regulate in the moment and have more choicefulness.

A few ways psychotherapy can help

One on One Therapy

One on One Therapy

The relationship we have with ourselves is sometimes fraught with challenges. Unfinished business from our past may influence our experience in the present. Unexpected traumas and life itself may leave us at an emotional crossroads.

Gestalt Therapy

Relationship Therapy

“Past couples counselling never clicked for us—until Scott. He gets both our perspectives, and even small shifts leave us feeling connected and uplifted after every session.”

Tori and Craig

“Scott has been an immense help on my journey through grief with his genuine compassion and wisdom delivered in a very humanistic manner. I have never experienced therapy without a sterile/clinical feeling and talking with Scott is like having meaningful conversations with a wise friend, it’s been a breath of fresh air.”

Sarah

“Scott’s a safe, welcoming presence who believes in me, even when I don’t. I’m so thankful for his steady support.”

Mary

“After my first session with Scott, my wife asked how I felt. I told her I felt lighter—like a weight had lifted.”

Danny

“Scott’s easy going, genuine care makes talking effortless. His fresh, present-focused Gestalt approach cuts through my overthinking, offering new insights that keep me grounded—not stuck in my head.”

Matthew

“I came to Scott struggling with loss and loneliness. His present, empathic, down-to-earth style helped me uncover their roots, manage tough emotions, and feel supported every step of the way.”

Lucilla

‘Working with Scott has significantly improved my quality of life. The emotional support he provides, combined with a safe and nurturing space allows me to express all aspects of myself without judgement. Scott’s continued support creates a sense of security that empowers me to be fully authentic, open and I leave each session feeling more grounded ready to navigate life’s challenges.”

Ron

“Scott’s support guided me through a tough life transition, reconnecting me with my resilience and past experiences. Our work deepened my self-awareness—especially as a parent—and gave me clarity and compassion to move forward.”

James

“Before Scott, I felt lost, unsure how to find the right therapist. From our first session, we clicked—I felt safe to share anything, truly seen and heard, like we’re on this journey together.”

Michael

“Scott helped me shed the weight of early traumas, guiding me toward a lighter, more enthusiastic self. I’m grateful for his role in my growth.”
