About Lorraine
Lorraine Dyer is a BACP-registered counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She works from a person-centred perspective and aims to provide a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about what is troubling them. Lorraine speaks plainly and listens carefully to understand each person's situation and priorities.
She has four years of experience supporting people with stress, anxiety and depression. Lorraine also helps with low self-esteem, eating and food-related concerns, grief, sleep problems and anger. She supports those coping with life changes, loss and motivation issues, and people working through relationship and family problems.
Her approach is rooted in Client-Centred Therapy, which means the focus is on the person's own experience and what they want to achieve. She also draws on cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness to help with unhelpful thoughts, behaviours and daily stress. Psychodynamic ideas may be used to look at patterns that repeat over time.
In sessions Lorraine aims to create clear, realistic steps you can try between meetings. Conversations are straightforward and paced to suit each person. Lorraine encourages people to explore feelings at their own speed while working towards better day-to-day coping.
To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and then arrange a session based on the therapist's availability. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and Lorraine conducts work in English in the UK.
How approaches like person-centred work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience, helping them find their own answers rather than imposing solutions. It is often used for issues like low self-esteem, relationship concerns and life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical techniques to manage anxiety, low mood and unhelpful patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose or combine methods that match their goals and preferences. This means testing what helps, adjusting methods, and agreeing on clear steps to try between sessions.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use techniques such as guided mindfulness exercises or thought-record work between meetings to support progress.
