Melissa Favre-Lorraine

I'm an integrative psychotherapist dedicated to helping you overcome trauma, attachment issues, and emotional dysregulation so you can become your most authentic and fulfilled self.

I’m deeply passionate and knowledgeable about my work and have even developed my own 5-step framework to guide my clients through healing. My values are strong, and I have zero tolerance for discrimination based on gender, sexuality, background, race, or neurodiversity. At the same time, I’m warm and funny, and I have two very cute rabbits as colleagues.

Why work with me?

Maybe you've spent years feeling like you had to be someone else—constantly trying to meet the expectations of others or avoiding conflict at all costs. Whether it’s unresolved trauma, attachment wounds, or the weight of anxiety and depression, it can leave you feeling disconnected from your true self. You might find yourself stuck in people-pleasing, overworking, masking, or repressing your emotions just to keep going. Coping can turn into unhealthy patterns like overworking, doom scrolling, self-harming, addictions, OCD, or eating disorders. Together, we can unravel those patterns, understand how your past is shaping your present, and help you develop what you need to feel good in your own skin.

I have experience supporting clients going through the following:

• Stress and anxiety (including social anxiety, health anxiety, and panic attacks)
• Depression
• ADHD, Autism, ASD
• Low self-esteem and low self-confidence
• Family issues
• Trauma and abuse recovery (sexual, physical, emotional)
• Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD)
• Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
• Addiction
• Children/spouses of narcissistic personalities
• Affairs and betrayals recovery
• Improving couple communication
• Suicidal thoughts
• Eating disorders
• Perfectionism
• Self-harm
• Vaginismus
• and more...

How I help:

1. By helping you understand how your past experiences shape your current challenges.
2. By teaching you to regulate and self-soothe, so you can safely feel and process your emotions.
3. By guiding you to connect with yourself by noticing your thought patterns and truly feeling your emotions.
4. By healing past traumas through methods like inner-child work and somatic experiencing.
5. By providing a safe space where you can show up as your true, most authentic self.

Couple counselling

I really enjoy working with couples, and I can help you navigate a number of challenges, such as developing better ways to communicate and have difficult conversations, (re)developing emotional as well as physical intimacy, or navigating infidelity recovery. I may at times work with each individual separately to gain a better understanding of what is going for each of you, and how that may be relating to your past experiences.

If it sounds like we could be a good fit, I’d love to hear from you! Having been on this journey myself, I know this can feel pretty scary. I offer a free initial 20-minute consultation so you can get a sense of who I am and how we may work together. During our first session, I’ll ask you a few questions to get an overview of your life, so I can better understand what you've gone through, what you'd like to work on, what your goals are, and what you'd like to tackle first.

How we will work together

I believe that everyone’s journey is unique, which is why I integrate a range of therapeutic approaches—including person-centred, psychodynamic, trauma-focused, and somatic practices. This allows me to tailor my methods to your specific needs, so I can meet you where you are in your process. I strive to create a warm and inclusive space where people of all genders, sexual orientations, races, ages, abilities, and backgrounds feel comfortable bringing their true selves without shame or judgment.

About Me

I’m an integrative psychotherapist and supervisor-in-training, offering a warm and supportive space for therapists to reflect, learn, and develop. Whether you’re newly qualified or more experienced, I’m here to help you navigate the complexities of client work, professional challenges, and your own personal growth as a practitioner.

Supervision is about so much more than reviewing cases—it’s about creating a space where you can truly show up as yourself, explore what’s working, and figure out what’s not. My goal is to meet you where you are and adapt my approach to your needs. I work with the 7-Eyed Model for Supervision, which allows us to explore everything a lot more than what would normally be covered in supervision, in my personal experience.

I bring a wealth of experience from my psychotherapy practice, particularly in trauma, inner child work, and helping clients reconnect with their authentic selves. I also work with couples, so if that’s part of your practice, I'd be happy to support you with that.

My Supervision Style

I've experienced a wide range of supervision styles—some that made me feel small and others that inspired me to grow. That experience taught me the importance of creating a supervision relationship that feels safe, empowering, and aligned with your needs.

What I Offer

• 1:1 Supervision: Held online via Google Meet
• Introductory Offer: As I’m currently completing my supervision qualification, I’m offering the first 20 hours at a 50% discounted rate—£30 per session (regular rate: £70). If money is an issue, or if you're a trainee, I'm happy to offer the sessions for free
• A Tailored Approach: Whether you’re looking for a reflective space, guidance, or practical tools, I’ll adapt to meet your needs.

I have experience supporting clients and couples going through the following:

• Stress and anxiety (including social anxiety, health anxiety, and panic attacks)
• Depression
• ADHD, Autism, ASD
• Low self-esteem and low self-confidence
• Family issues
• Trauma and abuse recovery (sexual, physical, emotional)
• Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD)
• Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
• Addiction
• Children/spouses of narcissistic personalities
• Affairs and betrayals recovery
• Improving couple communication
• Recocering from infidelity
• Building emotional and physical intimacy
• Suicidal thoughts
• Eating disorders
• Perfectionism
• Self-harm
• Vaginismus
• and more...

Why Work with Me?

If you’re looking for supervision that’s warm, engaging, and explores all aspects of your work, I may be a good fit! I’m passionate about this work and genuinely invested in helping therapists grow by offering the supervision you need. I understand the highs and lows of the journey, whether you’re working through a challenging client situation or navigating professional doubts.

At the same time, I know how important it is to trust your instincts. I’ll encourage you to explore what feels right for you, while also sharing insights and techniques from my own practice.

I offer free 20-minute intro calls, so we can decide if we're a good fit for each other. During our first session, I'll ask for a brief overview of your experience and caseload, and then give you the space to bring the clients you need support with.
