About Lorraine

Lorraine Dyer is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom who works from a person-centred perspective and holds BACP registration. She focuses on helping people who feel stuck, overwhelmed or low, and offers straightforward, respectful support to explore what matters to them.

Lorraine aims to make beginning therapy as simple and safe as possible for anyone feeling anxious about taking the first step. With four years of clinical experience, she has helped people tackle depression, stress and anxiety.

Background and approach

She also supports those dealing with eating and food-related issues, low self-esteem, loss and grief. Clients come for help with life changes, relationship strains, anger and problems with sleep or motivation. Her way of working blends client-centred listening with practical tools from cognitive behavioural approaches and mindfulness.

Lorraine also draws on psychodynamic ideas to help people make sense of recurring patterns and past influences. Sessions are paced to match each person’s needs and readiness to change. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space to talk through difficult thoughts and feelings.

Conversations focus on what the person wants to change and manageable steps to get there. Lorraine emphasises simple strategies people can practise between sessions. Therapy is available in English and is delivered remotely by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.

Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire, then scheduling sessions to fit around daily life.

How online therapy and different approaches can help

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience at the centre of sessions. The counsellor listens without judgement and helps the person clarify what they want to change or understand. This approach is helpful for people who need space to talk and be heard.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses practical strategies to test unhelpful thinking and build small behavioural changes that improve mood and reduce anxiety. CBT is often used for stress, low mood and sleep problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lorraine will discuss different ways of working and together they will choose what fits the person’s goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and methods can be adjusted as needs evolve.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for busy lives. Video calls recreate a face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging suit short check-ins or people who prefer typing. These options help fit sessions around work, caregiving or travel and make it easier to keep continuity between appointments.
