About Lorraine
Lorraine Dyer works with stress, anxiety, depression, eating and self-esteem concerns using client-centred ways of working and other psychological approaches. She is a BACP counsellor and has four years' experience in the UK. Lorraine invites people to talk about what is troubling them and to set practical goals together.
She offers straightforward talking therapy that focuses on the person's experience. Sessions provide time to name difficult thoughts and feelings and to look at how these affect daily life. Lorraine helps people consider small changes they can try between sessions.
Her background includes work with low mood, grief, family problems and relationship difficulties. She also sees people coping with life changes, loss and motivation problems. Eating and food-related issues, dissociation and sleeping difficulties are within her focus areas.
Lorraine draws on client-centred counselling alongside cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness. She also uses psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat over time. These approaches are used to help with mood problems, unwanted behaviours and issues with self-image.
Sessions are conducted in English and she does not currently take international clients. Fees vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To start, use the Talk to a counsellor online button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and book a first session.
How her approaches work in online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's own perspective and feelings. The counsellor listens with attention and helps the person to explore what matters to them, which can help with low mood, relationship difficulties and self-esteem concerns.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses practical techniques and small experiments to change unhelpful patterns and to manage symptoms like anxiety or low mood.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lorraine will discuss goals and preferences with the client and decide together which methods to try. This collaborative process helps shape sessions so they stay relevant to the person’s needs.
The practical benefits of online counselling include fitting sessions into a busy week and avoiding travel time. Please confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to keep regular appointments and to work around other commitments.
