Lorraine Collins

I provide a safe, gentle and non judgemental space to talk. I work collaboratively with my clients in order to suit their need instead of trying to fit the client into a particular model. My work is supervised regularly and I continue to keep abreast with new developments and research within the field of mental health and well-being which further informs my practice.

My approach to counselling and psychotherapy weaves together different modalities to meet the client’s need at that time. The foundation of my training is psychodynamic, which is an exploration of conscious and unconscious forces that underlie human behaviours. During my training I have had the privilege of working alongside a diverse range of Psychotherapists and Analysts whose expertise and experience has helped me to develop my own practice in a more holistic and integrative way.
