About me

Thank you for taking the time to view my profile. My name is Lorraine, I am a caring, warm and compassionate therapeutic counsellor. Do you feel like you are not listened to or felt heard about your problems? I am here to provide you with a safe space where you can lighten the load of what is burdening you in a non-judgement and empathetic way. I believe you hold the key to your therapeutic journey as who knows themselves better than themselves.

My goal is to support and empower you on your journey towards understanding, growth, and healing. With compassion and respect, I’ll help you explore your thoughts and emotions, leading you to greater self-understanding and improved wellbeing.
I believe that when it comes to therapy each person’s experience is unique and therefore, I tailor it to the needs of each individual.

Through a mix of therapeutic approaches, I use psychodynamic, person-centred and cognitive behaviour therapy to allow the process of self growth to start and I ensure you are always my priority in our safe space.
Our therapeutic sessions are for you to explore and reflect at your own pace and provide your own autonomy in situations providing your own solutions.
