Lorna Wilson, BACP
About me
My name is Lorna Wilson and I know how difficult it can be to take the first step to seek support, and I wish to thank you for looking at my profile.
Life can be very challenging especially over the past two years, with many changes taking place and a lot of uncertainty. At times we have many questions, and we find ourselves trying to gain some clarity, we search for support to find some answers.
I have experienced the difference counselling has made to my life and I felt that this is something I wanted to share. And for that reason, I trained as a Counsellor.
I have a Post Graduate Diploma in Counselling and I am an Accredited Member of British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapy. (MBACP)
I have over17 years’ experience as a qualified Counsellor. I have been fortunate to work with adults, young people, and children, where I have helped them work through issues such as depression, anxiety, angry management, bereavement, loss, low self-esteem, self compassion, family relationship issues, work relationships, to name a few.
My core model is person centred. Working in a number of settings where there is often time limit, my approach has been to develop trust and a working therapeutic relationship where you can develop strategies to become more fulfilled and to gain more understanding of your life. My aim is to offer warmth and a space for you to explore with freedom and non judgement the issues you want to. I have been privileged and honoured to witness the difference therapy can make to a client’s life.
