Lorraine Stronach

Lorraine Stronach is an experienced counsellor who offers calm, practical help for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, addiction or relationship strain. She welcomes conversations about depression and life changes, and will listen without rushing. Her approach aims to make the first steps feel manageable for anyone who has decided to seek support.

With 18 years of professional experience and the NCPS credential, Lorraine uses an integrative style. She blends different methods to suit each person rather than following a single script. That means sessions focus on the immediate problems that matter to the client, such as coping with loss, handling control issues, or reducing impulsive behaviours.

She pays close attention to attachment patterns and how early relationships shape present difficulties. Lorraine also draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to spot unhelpful thinking and on mindfulness practices to help people become less reactive to stress. Jungian perspectives may be used to explore deeper themes if that seems helpful.

Her work often covers issues such as abandonment, body image, communication problems, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, isolation, and questions about life purpose. Narcissism is also listed among areas she addresses when relevant to a person's story.

People can expect a respectful, sensitive manner and straightforward guidance. Lorraine encourages small practical steps alongside reflective work, helping clients build clearer choices and stronger coping over time.

How Lorraine’s approaches can work online

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships affect current connections and trust. Online sessions can uncover patterns of attachment that influence how someone relates to partners, friends or colleagues. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and supporting a person to find their own answers, helping with issues like low self-worth, guilt or life purpose. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviours with practical exercises, useful for anxiety, depression and impulsivity.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Lorraine aims to work collaboratively, discussing options and adapting methods as a client's needs and goals become clearer. She will help weigh what feels most useful and comfortable, and adjust over time if something is not working.

The biography does not specify session formats, so please confirm current online options before booking. Generally, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let someone join sessions from a quieter place or choose a telephone call when video is not convenient. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often use a mix of techniques online to offer both practical exercises and reflective conversation.
