About Lorna
Lorna Wilson is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with 19 years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties and a wide range of life challenges commonly faced by young adults. She also supports people dealing with grief, anger, addictions, trauma, self-esteem and issues around intimacy and identity.
Her way of working rests on person-centred principles. Sessions begin with listening and building trust. From there she helps people talk through what matters most and develop practical strategies to manage day-to-day pressures. Conversations are straightforward and focused on what the client wants to change.
Lorna draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, mindfulness, solution-focused techniques and trauma-focused methods. These are used to help with coping skills, emotional regulation and step-by-step problem solving. The emphasis is on small, achievable steps rather than quick fixes.
She has worked in a variety of settings and has experience supporting adults with work and family stresses, bereavement and transitional life stages. That background informs a practical style that balances listening with active suggestions when appropriate.
People often come for help with career uncertainty, feeling behind peers, money worries, relationship breakdown and the strain of caregiving. Lorna aims to help clients gain clearer priorities and better ways to manage difficult emotions and situations.
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then commit to actions that reflect their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and when life feels aimless.Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting rapport so the person can explore their concerns at their own pace. It is often used for relationship issues, self-esteem and adjustment to life changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and together they will try approaches that fit. That collaborative process helps shape which methods are used and how sessions are organised.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into study, shifts and busy schedules. It can also allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, or to avoid being on camera when that feels difficult. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises and mindfulness practices to work well over distance, helping clients build new routines and coping skills that fit everyday life.
