Lorraine Phillips MA MBACP (Accredited) Counsellor/Psychotherapist & Supervisor
Email meAbout me
I am a BACP accredited counsellor/psychotherapist. I have been practicing for more than 15 years and have a wide range of experience working with adults, young people/children, couples and relationships, and groups.
I provide a confidential space where we can explore what is happening in your life. You may not understand why you feel the way you do, or you may have something specific you would like to talk through with someone. This could be anxious feelings, low mood, a bereavement or relationship difficulties for example. We can look at these issues together. I work at your pace and with what you bring to the sessions.
Sometimes it can feel daunting and be difficult to make the first step. I offer a non-judgemental and empathic space - the emphasis on developing a relationship together that can help you understand your experiences better.
If you would like to know more about how we can work together please get in touch.
Please contact me by email, text or phone call:

- a free initial phone discussion.
