Lorraine Stronach

Lorraine Stronach welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression or life changes. She offers calm, respectful listening and practical support for those trying to cope with addictions, relationship problems or low mood. Her approach aims to help people feel understood and to find clearer ways forward.

She is credentialed with NCPS and has 18 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. Lorraine describes herself as an integrative counsellor who draws on different ways of working so each session fits the person in front of her. Sessions focus on what is most helpful for the individual rather than a one-size-fits-all method.

In practice she blends attachment-based ideas with client-centred listening and cognitive behavioural tools when they suit the issue at hand. She also uses mindfulness and occasionally draws on Jungian perspectives to support meaning and self-awareness. Conversations are straightforward and aimed at spotting patterns, building coping steps, and reducing unhelpful thinking or behaviour.

People who come for help with body image, guilt and shame, control or impulsivity, or who feel isolated or stuck can work on small, achievable changes. Lorraine also supports those facing divorce and separation, midlife questions, and issues around abandonment or attachment.

If someone decides to start, they follow a simple sign-up and matching process before arranging sessions. The focus is on practical progress, steady reflection, and treating each person with sensitivity and respect.

Therapeutic approaches for online work

Lorraine uses attachment-based ideas to help people understand their close relationships and how early patterns can affect current worries. This approach looks at how people form bonds and aims to improve coping in relationships and reduce isolation.

She also practises client-centred therapy, which means conversations begin with attentive, non-judgemental listening and follow the person’s own pace. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is used alongside these approaches to identify unhelpful thinking and test practical changes that reduce anxiety or low mood.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Lorraine will discuss what feels most useful, try different ways of working, and adapt methods to match each person's goals and preferences rather than imposing a fixed plan.

Please confirm the specific session formats available before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life, for example by avoiding travel, allowing shorter check-ins during a busy day, or offering an option when someone prefers not to be on camera. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often find these practical benefits help people keep therapy consistent alongside work and family commitments.
