About Lorna
Lorna Wilson is a counsellor and an Accredited Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with 19 years’ experience. She works with adults on common problems such as stress, anxiety, depression, grief and relationship difficulties. She also supports people facing parenting strain, addiction concerns, trauma and issues around self-esteem and identity.
Lorna uses a person-centred style. She focuses on building trust and a steady working relationship so people can speak openly. Sessions aim to help people make sense of what is happening and to try practical ways of coping. She often combines person-centred work with mindfulness and solution-focused techniques to help people find small changes that make day-to-day life easier.
Her background includes long-term practice across a range of settings where time and resources could be limited. This has influenced a pragmatic way of working that looks for manageable steps and clearer thinking. She has experience supporting people through bereavement, family difficulties, workplace stress and life transitions.
Lorna also brings approaches drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and trauma-focused work when these fit the concern. She aims to help people notice patterns of thought and behaviour, then try different responses. That can include short exercises, reflective conversation and simple mindfulness practices.
If you are an English speaker in the United Kingdom or abroad and are considering counselling, the next step is to confirm current session options and booking details before scheduling a first appointment.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that align with their values. It can be used to address anxiety, depression and difficulties with motivation. Client-Centred Therapy places emphasis on a respectful, non-judgemental relationship and simple reflective listening to help people speak openly and find their own solutions. Mindfulness Therapy teaches short practices to calm the mind and reduce reactivity; these practices often help with stress, sleep and emotional regulation.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss which methods fit a person’s goals and try them out collaboratively. That means adapting techniques and the pace to what feels workable for the client rather than insisting on one method.
Confirm the precise session formats before booking since the profile does not list specific options. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. People often find it simpler to continue work across weeks if sessions slot into ordinary routines, and exercises such as brief mindfulness practices transfer well to remote appointments.
