Individual Counselling
Lorraine works with women to identify the values that are most important to them. Lorraine helps women to learn the skills and strategies to address the beliefs and attitudes that prevent them from having the life they want. This might look like; exploring the messages women received growing up about their worth, the experiences they have had i.e. grief and loss, traumatic events, or unhealthy family patterns that have shaped their self-concept.
Lorraine currently supports women presenting with: –
- Anxiety
- Stress
- Values based Career Guidance
- Coping Skills
- Grief and Loss
- Life Transitions; death, divorce, adjusting to health conditions, loss of employment
- Self Esteem
- Carer issues
- Burnout
