Individual counselling

If you experience Grief, Loss and looking for Bereavement counselling. With difficult emotions often finding space to speak with a trained professional therapist can make a difference. You will feel less alone in the situation as you start to talk about feelings and emotions.

If you are experiencing symptoms of anxiety, social anxiety, health anxiety or depression and would like to talk to a trained professional therapist.

If you want to talk about Neurodiversity and how this impacts you and the world around you. I believe in Ally-ship.

"She was truly amazing....To have someone walk beside you on a road to self discovery and recovery at a time when you are in crisis is both revelatory and profound. Lorraine was my support and guide on this road and she was truly amazing in the fact that she helped me find the tools and strength needed to continue on that road, aware of my own needs, accepting self love and trusting my own instincts. She’s great!"

Why come to counselling? People come to counselling for numerous reasons, it's hugely personal and an individual process. It may be looking for support with a specific issue but sometimes it can be linked to a sense of lacking purpose and fulfillment in life, low self-worth or not belonging. (Recently its been more about the opportunity of talking to someone who understands when it feels like there is no-one else.)

Who do I work with? I work with people in all stages of counselling, from those who have never tried counselling before to those newly training or searching for a different type of therapy or counsellor.

I am an Accredited Supervisor (NCIP- Level 7). PCA trained using a Hybrid approach incorporating different models to suit your needs. 

In person Truro-Cornwall and ONLINE across the UK 

My way of supervising encompasses my person centred way of being but incorporates a broader, more psychodynamic view of relationships allowing me to work with Parallel processes and transference in pursuit of what is best for the client and supervisee.

We can contract to monthly  90 minutes twice monthly  45 minute sessions. 

Please let me know your preference.

I'm looking to build good supervisory relationships and open to working with Person centred supervisees plus other therapists from different theoretical backgrounds (Humanistic). 

This is Integrative supervision suitable for person centred counsellor and other modalities since I believe no one single supervision method is effective for all situations or supervisee.

If you are interested in working with me - please contact me directly.  

The first 30 minutes is free and where we start to  discuss supervision needs in details to work out if I am the right supervisor for your individual needs.

The first meeting, is free to you (30 minutes) which forms discussion of your work and if/how we can work together based on approach, experience, types of clients seen, specialisms and practice.
