About Lorraine
Lorraine Roberts offers calm, practical support for people facing stress, anxiety and life changes. She is a counsellor with the BACP credential and 12 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. Her style is warm and straightforward, aimed at making conversations feel manageable and down to earth.
She helps with a wide range of concerns, including relationship difficulties, grief and loss, low self-esteem, addictions, bipolar and depression. She also supports people dealing with ADHD, intimacy issues, eating and sleeping problems, career pressure and compassion fatigue.
Background and approach
Additional focus areas include attachment concerns, adoption and foster care challenges, chronic illness and caregiving stress. Lorraine uses a mix of practical talking therapies to suit each person. She draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to address unhelpful thinking patterns, and acceptance-based methods to work with difficult emotions.
She also uses attachment-informed and client-centred approaches to make sure conversations feel respectful and focused on the person in front of her. Sessions are offered in English, Spanish and French, and Lorraine works with people both in the UK and internationally. Online sessions include video calls, phone, live chat and text messaging to match different needs and schedules.
Her approach begins with listening to what matters most to the individual and building a plan from there. People should expect a collaborative process that aims to make daily life feel more manageable and purposeful over time.

Online support
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The counsellor will talk through your needs, preferences and goals and suggest the methods that feel most useful. Together you can adapt the approach over time if priorities change or new issues arise.
Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging to make engagement easier. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues, phone sessions suit people with limited bandwidth, live chat can be used for shorter check-ins and text messaging works for ongoing support between appointments. These options help fit counselling around work, family life and travel, making it easier to stay consistent with sessions.
