About Lorraine
Lorraine Roberts is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who focuses on trauma and other stress-related concerns. She uses a warm, interactive style and aims to create a respectful space where people can talk through distressing events and everyday pressures. Lorraine speaks English, Spanish and French and has twelve years of professional experience.
She helps people who are dealing with anxiety, depression, grief and relationship difficulties. She also works with issues such as addiction, ADHD, low self-esteem, eating and sleeping problems, and compassion fatigue.
Background and approach
Lorraine supports people facing big life changes and career challenges as well. Her background includes practice with both short-term and longer-term difficulties. She draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to look at thoughts and behaviours.
She also uses acceptance and commitment ideas to help people identify values and practical steps forward. Lorraine brings attachment-informed thinking into sessions to understand how past relationships affect current patterns. She uses a client-centred stance too, so the conversation is led by the person sitting with her and shaped around what matters to them.
This mix lets her adapt sessions to different needs and goals. People can expect a collaborative process where practical strategies meet personal reflection. Lorraine avoids labelling and focuses on usable changes.
Her aim is to help people regain steadiness, make clearer choices, and build coping skills that fit their daily life.

Approaches that suit online therapy and trauma work
Trauma-Focused Therapy helps people process distressing events by gently reviewing memories and reactions and developing new ways to cope. It is often used for people feeling overwhelmed by past harm or abuse. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on identifying what matters to someone and taking small, value-driven steps despite difficult thoughts or feelings; it is useful for anxiety, depression and stress management.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lorraine treats approach selection as a collaborative conversation. She will listen to your goals, try out techniques, and adjust the plan so it fits your needs and preferences rather than following a fixed recipe.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging gives practical flexibility. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone calls need less bandwidth and can fit into a short break, and messaging or live chat suit brief check-ins or times when not being on camera helps. These options make regular work on trauma and everyday issues easier to maintain around work, family and travel.
