Lorelle Busby helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood or life changes. She describes clients as the experts in their own stories and focuses on practical steps they can use day to day. Her style is warm and straightforward, aimed at making starting therapy feel less daunting.

With five years of practice in the United Kingdom, she draws on several established approaches. She uses cognitive behavioural techniques to spot and shift unhelpful thoughts and patterns.

Background and approach

She also works with attachment-based ideas to understand how past relationships shape current responses. Sessions are centred on what matters to the person in front of her. Expect space to tell your story and to set small, manageable goals.

Lorelle aims to build on existing strengths while introducing new coping skills for anxiety, low mood, sleep problems and stress. She has worked with issues that include trauma and abuse, self-esteem, ADHD, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, parenting strain and grief. Additional focus areas listed include adoption and foster care, attachment difficulties, eating and body image concerns, caregiver stress and hoarding-related behaviours.

Lorelle combines client-centred listening with practical techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy when helpful. This mix allows conversations to explore feelings while also testing new ways of responding. Her approach is collaborative and paced to suit each person’s needs.

Approaches you can try online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice thoughts and feelings without being driven by them. It focuses on clarifying values and taking small steps toward what matters, which can help with anxiety, low mood and life changes.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It can help people understand why certain situations feel triggering and practise new ways of relating to others and to themselves.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to choose techniques that fit their goals and preferences. That might mean mixing ACT, attachment ideas and client-centred listening so sessions feel helpful and practical.

Online work offers flexibility across formats. Video calls let people use visual cues and a fuller conversation, phone sessions can suit shorter check-ins or lower bandwidth, and text-based messaging or live chat can fit quick reflections or busy days. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family life or other commitments while still working on real change.
