Lulu-you have a lovely, gentle and inclusive style.
WOW! That was a great way to start the school year, I now feel as if I have a better understanding of how we all feel as a staff and how we want to try to work together as a team.
Feedback from counselling sessions.
Thank you very much Lulu. It has really helped me to be able to talk freely about the issues we have had and you breaking these down into manageable chunks for us to tackle and work through together as a family. I would not hesitate recommending you to others.
I have found our sessions very useful as a springboard for further discussions, as well as making me/us think slightly differently about why we have got to where we are and what is important moving forward.
Thank you so much for today. I found it so beneficial and like a huge weight has been lifted from my shoulders.
J seems indeed in a better place mentally and she is much nicer towards her brother and I at home, this brings a bit of harmony at home. Thank you.
Lulu, thank you I really value your support.
It was really good to talk, I hadn't realised how much I needed it, feel so much lighter and less stuck.
Thank you Lulu for your support and encouragement in helping me to find my way through a dark time.
I've realised I have the power to shift my uncomfortable thoughts to much better ones! M aged 13
"It really works talking things out! Yay! I want to tell the world!
"I really valued my sessions with Lulu. I had begun to feel overwhelmed and exhausted by the ongoing issues we were experiencing with our children's bedtime habits and self motivation. Lulu is a fantastically calm, warm and non-judgemental person to talk to and used a really useful collaborative approach.
“ Lulu helped me come up with some solutions that were easy to implement and I quickly began to see a positive change in the children's behaviour. Working with Lulu has made me feel more confident as a parent."
"I talk to Lulu when I need to gain perspective. We've been talking on and off now for a while. I find it very helpful to have someone to turn to when I need to talk things out."
"Over the last couple of years we've been visiting Lulu as a couple and as individuals too. At times our children have been to see her on their own for some gentle guidance. All very helpful."
I have been speaking to Lulu for the last year. This was predominantly for my teenage daughter but we found that both my wife and needed help as well in our relationship with our daughter. I have personally found her engaging, calm and measured in all she says and the routes of action she advises. Rarely do you experience someone with the touch required for navigating teenage issues and parental desperation. Lulu has excelled herself in our case and everyone has benefitted even if tears tended to be a currency we all had to use every so often. I would vouch, advocate and promote her services to anyone. She has been our rock in recent times. I have recently been having counselling sessions with Lulu and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her for her service. She was at all times calm, empathetic and gentle giving me the wise counselling I needed at the time. Lulu tried to be available when I needed help, she was totally professional at all times.
Lulu is very special. She helps you define what works for you and, together, to find a way to put it into practice. She is a brilliant, caring and understanding woman, full of wisdom and empathy. An amazing combination for a listener. And when she talks, she has the ability to bring acceptance and order into your thoughts and emotions. Her level of inner peace and mindful presence is grounding and uplifting. I don't know how I could be standing this straight if I was without her guidance. She is the best person to accompany a process of growth because she does it so, by teaching emotional awareness and intelligence along the way. Every session is such a positive experience and she makes me feel in control of my life. I will be eternally grateful for the honour of sharing my deepest thoughts with someone like her and I wish everyone had the chance to experience at least a conversation with this amazing couch woman. She was life changing to me.
"Lulu has helped our family grow into a peaceful, loving, cohesive team. She was able to make each member, both adult and child, feel listened to and helped us understand each other’s needs and come up with a family charter which has had a positive impact on our health and the happiness of our household."

"My partner and I found Lulu's calm, kind, non judgemental attitude incredibly helpful. She listened and came up with helpful, useful, easy to follow ways to help us. We met both as a couple and then as a family, both times felt comfortable and easy. Her ability to make a difference in a very short space of time, was incredible. She made me remember that indulging my son is not the same as loving him! We are all sleeping better, playing better and generally happier, thank you so much." Charlotte and Family.
"The process of growing from a teenager to a man is fraught for so many as I have discovered as a mother. Many young people feel lost as they grow into adulthood and working out who you are and what you want to do with your life is often fraught. Lulu spent many hours with my son supporting him to grow and take responsibility in a very connecting, non judgmental way that has helped him on his journey. He often speaks of her as a very significant person in his life and got so much from seeing her. The support she has given me to parent him has also been invaluable" Mother and son. I contacted Lulu because my nine year old daughter had nocturnal fears and was feeling anxious. Lulu helped her a lot by giving her techniques to analyse her feelings and how to cope with difficult emotions and thoughts. My daughter really enjoys her sessions with Lulu and looks forward to seeing her. I highly recommend her." Mother and daughter.
"Try seeing Lulu Luckock - she is a teacher and wonderful at helping children and parents a like! She is calm, patient, kind and full of brilliant ideas. She will be able to help you! I know she's helped many local families and it won't feel like therapy or an issue."It will just be advice and guidance- posted on Nappy Valley Net
"It took some encouragement to get us all to Lulu's door but we didn't look back, it has been really helpful to have a safe space to share the way we feel and to find ways together to be a happier family again." Hannah and Husband
"The session was really, really helpful....looking forward to the next meeting." John and family.
"Lulu was there to listen when I needed an ear, together we worked things through so I could see the best way ahead for me and the family. It didn't take long." Janie
Lulu has been a fantastic support for us with our teenage daughter. Sometimes it’s hard to decide how best to deal with issues and Lulu has been able to give us some great advice, techniques and a friendly face. My daughter too, has developed a great rapport with Lulu. She enjoys her sessions, and Lulu helps her reflect on her behaviour in a way that a parent might find hard! Lulu had a very calm, non judgemental and friendly way of speaking as well as having some great pointers. It’s helped us as a family reconnect in areas we hadn’t realised we needed it. In the words of Charlie Mackesy “what is the greatest thing you have learnt ? That I am enough “I started seeing Lulu because I was struggling to deal with the end of my marriage and I had recently been reminded of my very difficult childhood. I have been throughout my life nervy, stressed and deeply sad . Lulu very gently got me to see that I needed to protect myself by setting up boundaries and without me even noticing, she stripped my life back and rebuilt my confidence, making me see that the failure in my upbringing and my failed marriage were not my fault but connected to my whole sense of how worthless I felt I was. Instead of continually seeking praise and the wrong type of attention, I realised that I was carrying a huge burden that was tainting the very essence of me. Unlike many counsellors , she thought very deeply in between sessions so could make really poignant observations . Her unending patience and calm aura makes her room feel like you are in the womb. She also practices Reiki and will read your angel cards. I have, since I met her, without realising it , really started to like myself and made some self preservation life changes and even applied and been accepted to study law at university. I found myself at the start of the year putting away the second set of unused pillows on my bed. At 44 to suddenly learn and accept that you are enough is such a gift."edit.
