Lorna McGraw

Thank you for taking the time to learn a little about me. I know from my own experience, that coming to talk to someone about your life and your struggles can feel very uncomfortable and overwhelming.

My aim is to create a warm and welcoming environment where you feel safe and at ease, allowing you to share your thoughts and feelings openly, without fear of judgment.

Together, we’ll explore what isn’t working in your life and the pain you’re facing, discovering new ways to manage and alleviate your struggles.

I recognise that reaching out for support is a significant step, so I offer a free, no-obligation phone consultation to see if we’re the right fit. From there, we can work at your pace to find the approach that best meets your needs.

I have experience supporting clients with a range of challenges, including Anxiety, ADHD, Panic, intrusive thoughts, PTSD, trauma, depression, low self-esteem, OCD, social anxiety and more. 

I am a fully qualified counsellor and CBT therapist with a postgraduate diploma in CBT and Groupwork, I also have experience of working with Neurodivergent clients and adapting therapy to suit their needs.

I'm a BACP registered member and I currently work for the NHS as a CBT therapist.

I undertake regular, continuous professional learning to keep my skills up to date. Recently, these have included:

Acceptance and commitment therapy made simple

Compassion Focussed Therapy- an Introduction

Narrative exposure therapy - for Trauma and PTSD

Counselling and the Autism Spectrum

Adapting therapy for Neurodivergent Individuals
