Lorna Wilson offers support for a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, anger, depression, addictions and trauma. She also helps with issues around intimacy, eating and sleeping problems, parenting pressures, self-esteem, career uncertainty and coping with life changes. Lorna works with people who face compassion fatigue and specific worries such as money problems, multicultural concerns and prejudice-related stress.

Lorna uses a warm, person-centred style that aims to build trust quickly.

Background and approach

Conversations are straightforward and focused on what matters to the client. She encourages practical steps alongside reflection so people leave sessions with clearer direction and tools to try between meetings. Her methods draw on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, mindfulness practice and solution-focused work, with trauma-focused approaches when past harm needs addressing.

These approaches are offered in plain language and tailored to each person’s situation and goals. Lorna has a BACP credential from the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapy and brings 19 years of experience. Over her career she has worked in different settings supporting adults with mood, relationship and loss-related concerns.

That experience shapes a calm, steady way of working. Sessions aim to create a non-judgemental space where people can talk through what’s hard and develop clearer plans. Lorna invites clients to take small, manageable steps and to notice what changes over time.

How Lorna’s approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts without getting stuck in them and focus on chosen values and actions. It is useful for anxiety, stress and life changes. Mindfulness Therapy trains simple attention and breathing skills to reduce reactivity and improve calm; it suits persistent worry, sleep troubles and mood swings.

Lorna will work collaboratively to find the best fit between approach and need. She listens to goals and preferences, then suggests ways of working and practical steps to try. That plan can be reviewed and adjusted as therapy progresses so the method stays relevant to the client’s situation.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different routines. Video works well for longer conversations and visual rapport, phone calls need less bandwidth and are easier during a short break, while messaging and live chat suit quick check-ins or those who prefer written communication. These options give flexibility for busy lives and for people based outside the therapist’s immediate area.
