“Lorraine’s counselling is second to none; her natural ability to encourage and bring out the best in myself with such vivacity, helped me to laugh through the pain. I truly couldn’t have gotten through this time without her and find Lorraine to be highly professional, empathetic and gentle. I highly recommend!”

“Lorraine provided a supportive and non-judgemental space for me to process my feelings and reflect on what I was going through. I'm really proud of the work I did on my personal development over a challenging period of time, and I think it benefited hugely from Lorraine’s patience and encouragement. I will always be grateful. Thank you.”

“I came to Lorraine struggling to cope, understand and make sense of a traumatic moment in my life. The time I’ve spent working with Lorraine have been the most valuable of my life. Through my sessions with Lorraine I feel great comfort, her style and ability to enable me the freedom and security to speak, has organically developed a trusting, secure and enriching patient relationship. It’s been the most liberating and empowering experience and I’ve learnt things that will stay with me forever.”

“From our first conversation, I knew that I wanted to begin my therapy journey with Lorraine. Apart from reading about her expertise and knowing she was from the same background as me, I felt she understood and listened from the very start and this continued throughout my therapy session. Lorraine balanced her professionalism and with empathy all the way through. The key thing for me that she responded to feedback of me wanting to be challenged more. Her openness to feedback allowed me to see that therapy is continuous work even with your therapist and allowed me to confirm that it was indeed not indicative of my comfortableness. Now, I feel I have the skills to take on in relationships and situations away from therapy after helping me grapple with the past and move forward. I feel more confident and rooted in who I am. I've found there is real strength in boundaries and living the life I want to create which was possible with Lorraine's support. Without a doubt, I have left the door open to return to her sessions if when and needed as I take on this news chapter on my own”

“I received counselling from Lorraine for 6 sessions. She was an attentive listener and accommodated the fact I was unable to attend in person sessions by swapping them for phone calls. She was flexible and offered great advice, made me feel comfortable enough to share my thoughts through just a phone call, and helped me to reflect on each of our sessions. After the 6 sessions I felt we had accomplished my goals however I was offered another round of sessions if I felt it was necessary. She was really great and I couldn't recommend her enough. If you are looking for a flexible, knowledgeable and friendly counsellor, I would definitely advise making contact with Lorraine.”

“Thank you for providing personal therapy to me during the final year of my Level 4 therapeutic counselling course.

Your counselling helped me to gain a better understanding of myself, including recognising my triggers, dealing with grief and loss. It also helped me to overcome internal anger and anxiety. The counselling helped me to become more self aware. I gained confidence in myself as a trainee counsellor and in my personal life. I found Lorraine person centred approach calming and non judgmental, which provided me with the core values I needed to open up and feel safe. I believe this assisted in my personal growth. I would highly recommend Lorraine as therapeutic counsellor and I plan to continue counselling with her in the future.

Thank you for helping reach my authentic self and staying on the journey of healing with me.”

Through our sessions I was able to process past traumas and form a greater understanding of my experiences this helped me to regain confidence in myself and recognise all I have lived through and achieved.
