More about Lorraine
- 10 years' experience
- Female
- BACP
I am a BACP Accredited UK based therapist with over 20 years experience of supporting people in the workplace with a range of issues.
For the past 12 years I've also gained a wide experience of providing counselling support both in private practice and a variety of other settings to include private employers offering employee assistance programmes, the NHS, Family Support Services, Home Start and the Trade Unions.
I offer a gentle, calm approach to therapy and will work with you in the way that best suits your needs to get where you need to be.
I provide a confidential space, offering a compassionate, honest and trustworthy service to provide counselling support for either specific issues or simply because life feels complicated and it would help to talk in a safe, contained and non judgmental space.
I am told that I'm easy to talk to and would welcome the opportunity to work with you.
I hold the following Qualifications:
BACP Accreditation
Post Grad Level 7 Certificate in SupervisionÂ
TCL4 Diploma in Therapeutic counselling
Certificate in Online and Telephone Counselling
NVQ Level 4 in Advice and Guidance
OA Certificate in CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) - distinction.
BACP Certificate of Proficiency
PTTLS (Passport to Teaching in the Lifelong Learning Sector)
NOCN Level 3 Certificate in Employment Law
I have also completed further supplementary training to include Bereavement and Loss, Child Protection, Safeguarding, Domestic Violence, Addiction and Substance misuse, Emotional freedom technique, Childhood sexual abuse, (DID) Dissociative Identity Disorder and art therapy.
Some testimonials from past clients are below:
'I thought I had nothing to say, but then it all came out and I couldn't believe I'd talked for nearly an hour'
'Lorraine has a wonderful way, which puts you at ease and helps eliminate fears.'
'I found counselling so helpful, to be able to talk to someone who did not judge me helped me to feel confident to open up and to think about things differently'

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.

- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
