About Lorraine
Lorraine Roberts is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief and mood difficulties. She is approachable and aims to create space where people can talk things through and decide what matters most to them.
Her practice draws on Systemic therapy alongside cognitive and person-centred ideas. Lorraine shapes conversations to the person in front of her and avoids labels that feel limiting.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking about relationships, day-to-day coping, and future choices. She has worked in counselling for 12 years and holds BACP registration. That experience has included supporting clients through trauma, addiction concerns, and complex life changes.
Lorraine also works with people struggling with intimacy, parenting pressures, sleeping and eating problems, and career stress. Language support is available in English, Spanish and French. Lorraine often blends approaches so that techniques such as values-based goals, thought and behaviour work, and attention to attachment patterns are introduced when helpful.
The aim is to build skills that can be used between sessions. Practical arrangements include a mix of session formats to suit different needs. Lorraine explains the process clearly at the start, and collaborates with each person to set realistic goals.
Her style is warm and interactive, focusing on respect and sensitivity throughout.

Online support
How therapy approaches translate online
Systemic therapy looks at patterns in relationships and interactions. Online sessions let people map those patterns and try small changes between meetings, which can help with relationship issues and family dynamics. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people focus on values and committed actions; in online work this often means setting simple value-based tasks to practise between sessions. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early bonds shape current responses; talking this through remotely can still shift how someone relates and feels close to others.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences in early sessions and together decide which methods to use. This is a collaborative process and plans are adjusted as needs change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues, while phone calls use less bandwidth and can be easier on busy days. Live chat or messaging suits brief check-ins, ongoing coaching, or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, travel and family life.
