About Lorna
Lorna Harrison works with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns using a client-centred way of working. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and has seven years of professional experience in the UK.
Her approach places the person's experience at the centre of sessions. She listens without judgement and follows the client's pace. Sessions focus on what the person wants to change and on practical steps they can try between meetings.
She has helped people with grief, self-esteem, trauma and abuse, and intimacy-related issues. Other areas of focus include eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting strain, anger, career questions and coping with life changes. She also works with compassion fatigue, ADHD concerns, and people affected by cancer or hospice and end-of-life matters.
Lorna has experience addressing communication problems, family problems, women's issues and workplace difficulties. Her work often looks at how daily routines and relationships affect mood and behaviour. She aims to help people notice patterns and make small, manageable changes.
Sessions are practical and conversational. Clients can expect a calm, listening approach that keeps their goals in view. To start, people are asked to pick the Talk to a counsellor online button and complete a short matching questionnaire before booking a first session.
How her client-centred approach works online
Client-centred therapy places the person and their concerns at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens closely to what matters to the client and follows their pace, helping people clarify goals and choose what to focus on. This approach is useful for stress, relationship difficulties, grief and other everyday problems.
The therapist will also work collaboratively to find the best way forward. Together they will consider the client's needs, goals and preferences and agree an approach that fits. That may mean concentrating on feelings, communication patterns or practical steps to try between sessions.
Practical benefits of working online include fitting sessions around work and family commitments and reducing travel time. If you are interested in remote work, please confirm the specific session formats available before booking, since the biography does not list them. Many people find online sessions make it easier to attend regularly and keep therapy part of everyday life.
Sessions take place through BetterHelp by video, phone or messaging. We will earn a commission if you sign up.
