About Lorna
Lorna Harrison is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with seven years of professional experience. She works with adults on common life pressures including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, grief, parenting and workplace issues. She also supports people facing trauma, intimacy-related difficulties, eating and sleeping problems, and compassion fatigue.
Her approach is based on Client-Centred Therapy. Sessions focus on clear, straightforward conversation. She listens to what matters to the person and helps them put words to difficult feelings. The work is paced to the person’s readiness for change.
Lorna aims to help people sort through practical problems at home and work. That includes communication problems, managing the strain of caring or hospice situations, dealing with cancer-related challenges, and concerns around women’s health. She also addresses ADHD-related difficulties and anger that gets in the way of daily life.
In a meeting with Lorna the emphasis is on understanding current struggles and finding manageable steps forward. She keeps language plain and uses the Client-Centred frame to focus on the client’s perspective. Sessions tend to be conversational rather than prescriptive.
People choosing to work with Lorna start by describing the immediate issue and what they want to change. From there she helps set realistic short-term goals and reviews progress over time. The overall aim is steadier coping and clearer choices about relationships and responsibilities.
How sessions work
How Client-Centred Work Transfers to Online Sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely to a person’s experience and responding without judgement. In practice this means the therapist reflects what the client says, helps them clarify feelings, and supports them to decide which changes to try. This approach is often used for anxiety, relationship concerns, grief and general life stresses.For people dealing with parenting strain, family communication problems or workplace stress, the emphasis is on practical conversation. The therapist helps identify small, manageable steps and reviews how those changes feel over time. That makes the work collaborative - the person and therapist agree what to try next based on needs and goals.
