Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
When your thoughts won’t give you a moment’s peace — when you’re caught in a constant cycle of overthinking, analysing every detail, and imagining the worst-case scenarios — life can feel like an exhausting hamster wheel you can’t step off. You might find yourself stuck in doubt, weighed down by the judgements or expectations of others, or running endless “mental gymnastics” just to get through the day.
Negative thinking can take a real toll on your emotional wellbeing. I understand this not just as an online CBT therapist, but as someone who’s been through anxiety firsthand. I know how heavy it can feel, and I also know change is possible. Together, we can work on breaking that cycle, quieting your mind, and helping you feel more in control of your thoughts and your life.
I tailor therapy to each person’s unique needs, drawing on person-centred, and cognitive behavioural approaches to foster self-understanding and growth. Working with adults from diverse backgrounds, helping them navigate grief, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and more. Above all, our sessions are a space for you to feel heard, respected and empowered
Whether you’re navigating bereavement or loss, feeling overwhelmed by change, struggling with anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, shame, or relationship challenges, I’m here to support you. Speaking to someone impartial can bring clarity, help you process your experiences, and give you the tools to move forward.

Drawing on her experience as an online CBT therapist, Lorraine combines cognitive behavioural techniques with a person-centred approach to help people understand their patterns and build practical strategies for change.

For many common difficulties – such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems or adapting to life changes – online therapy has been found to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional face-to-face sessions. It can offer a practical way to access support for everyday mental health concerns.
One major benefit is flexibility. Individuals can choose the mode of contact that suits them best – video calls, phone sessions, live chat or in-app messaging – making it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments. This range of options helps people engage in the way that feels most comfortable.
Therapists who provide online care are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to change therapists if they feel a different match would be more helpful. Overall, online therapy is a convenient, accessible route to professional support for a wide range of common emotional and relational issues.
