About me
Hi
My name is Lorraine.
I am a professional psycho-therapeutic counsellor person centred trained who integrates different approaches by working remotely online or over the telephone with clients within the UK.
Sessions
I am deeply passionate about our work. In sessions we engage in Talking therapy using core conditions to provide you with space to explore what is coming up, how you are feeling; we are working to build a therapeutic relationship and building a greater awareness of who you are today and make choices for the future. This is with an open heart and strong mindset together. Welcome to CANDLE MOUSE COUNSELLING.
How long are the sessions and their frequency?
Sessions are 50 minutes long
I work with individuals weekly, fortnightly and very occasionally monthly for check-ins and maintenance.
Fees
Sessions during the day offer lower fees based on each individual needs but during the evening full rates apply.
Fees from 6pm - £70
Where will our sessions be?
I offer face-to-face sessions with adult clients in Truro and remotely online to the rest of the UK.
individual counselling
Sometimes I work with the following to help you with;
If you are experiencing Grief, Loss and any form of Bereavement. With difficult emotion often finding space by speaking with a trained professional therapist can make all the difference. You will feel less alone in the situation as you start to take about feelings and emotions.
If you are experiencing symptoms of Anxiety including Social anxiety, health anxiety, depression and would like to talk to a trained professional therapist.
You suspect ADHD or Neurodiversity and want to talk and work on symptoms.
You notice others are commenting on your Emotions at home or at work but you struggle to know where to start and how to stop the behaviour, or other history concerning you which does not make sense.
You are being triggered emotionally to many times but don't know why and want to deepen your self-awareness.
You want to establish Boundaries perhaps for the first time and start to take responsibility and accountability for life.
You have an awareness of negative thinking or negative thoughts and a tendency to black and white thinking or catastrophizing etc. If you want to work on this by utilizing tools to improve quality of wellbeing.
You have intrusive thoughts coming and going, which are overwhelming emotions.
Feelings of hopelessness, sadness, shame, loneliness, low confidence and low self-worth. Perhaps perfectionism, avoidance, low motivation, anxiety and stress are holding you back and you want to work on these areas.
You experience procrastination all the time, form unhealthy relationships and keep repeating patterns, not knowing how to make changes for the better. You feel there is no secure base, little trust, boundaries, struggle with communication and need a space to unpack and share emotions with no judgement or criticism from a professional therapist.
I bring a wealth of experience from my NHS and sound therapy training to see the whole person, rather than just a symptom or presenting issue.
My tool-box integrates different tools and approaches, to meet each clients individual need.
Phone me, send me an email and tell me a little about yourself. We can find out how we achieve this through my talking therapy and counselling.

Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred).
Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision.
Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training.
All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.

Further information
What happens in sessions?
I follow the Humanistic-holistic approach. Bringing my knowledge of sound therapy and energy felt within the body this is about our mind, our body and our spirit. Basically we look after the whole person not just focusing on one presenting issue.
