About Lorraine
Lorraine Dyer is a BACP-registered counsellor who focuses on improving mental health and wellbeing. She draws on four years of practice to help people manage stress, anxiety, low mood and life changes. Lorraine offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people to talk about what feels hard right now.
Her work often centres on everyday concerns such as grief, family tension, eating and food-related worries, sleep problems and low self-esteem. She also supports those facing larger shifts like divorce, midlife changes, job strain or issues linked to mood disorders and ADHD. Lorraine uses clear, practical conversation to help people understand what’s happening and decide what to try next.
Lorraine uses a mix of approaches to suit each person. She draws on client-centred counselling, cognitive behavioural ideas, mindfulness and psychodynamic thinking to look at how thoughts, habits and past experiences affect daily life. Discussions are collaborative and paced to what each person needs.
Sessions aim to identify small, manageable steps clients can take between meetings. Lorraine listens for patterns, reflects what she hears, and offers straightforward ways to practice new skills. Her style is warm and down-to-earth rather than clinical.
People who come to Lorraine find practical help with relationships, career pressure, addictive behaviours and feelings of isolation. She works in English and practises in the United Kingdom.

How Lorraine uses therapy approaches online
Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The therapist follows the persons lead, reflects what they say and helps them feel heard. This approach is useful for exploring feelings like grief, shame or low self-worth.Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It helps people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try practical experiments, which can aid anxiety, sleep problems and mood difficulties.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lorraine will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then suggest which methods to try. This is a shared decision and can change as the work progresses.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by cutting travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a lunch break. If you plan to meet online, confirm the exact session options before booking so you know what is offered. Registered or accredited professionals, including counsellors, use a range of methods to help people build new coping steps they can use between meetings.
