It’s natural to want to understand how you got here. But Lorraine’s experience over more than 30 years has shown her that lasting change comes from what you do next, not from staying focused on what’s already happened.
That’s why her work is built around personal accountability and forward movement. You’ll be encouraged to get clear on what you actually want — for your health, your confidence, your relationships or your day-to-day life — and then supported in taking consistent, realistic action towards it.
Stress, low confidence, feeling stuck, or physical symptoms rarely have a single, simple cause. Often, they’re connected to a mix of emotional, mental and lifestyle factors that build up over time — patterns of thinking, habits, pressures or unresolved feelings that can affect how you feel physically as well as emotionally.
Lorraine helps clients explore these underlying factors so they can see their situation more clearly.
Once you understand what's contributing to how you feel, you're in a much stronger position to make informed choices about what to change.
One of the most practical parts of Lorraine’s approach is her focus on micro habits — small, specific, manageable actions that are realistic to keep up.
Big changes often fail because they ask too much, too soon. Small changes succeed because they’re easy to repeat, easy to build on, and easy to fit into a real life. Over time, these small shifts compound into meaningful, lasting change — without the all-or-nothing pressure that derails most attempts at change.
Steps sized to fit the life you already have, not the one you’d need to clear the diary for.
Clear, defined actions rather than vague intentions — so you always know what “done” looks like.
Habits you can keep up long enough for them to compound into real, lasting change.
Since 1990, Lorraine has worked with clients using a broad combination of coaching and therapeutic approaches, alongside facilitating workshops and training programmes.
She doesn’t take a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, she draws on whichever combination of tools is most appropriate for what you’re working through — sometimes a single approach, sometimes a blend of several, always adapted to you.

Couples & Relationship Therapy
Healthy relationships are built on trust, understanding, and effective communication. Lorraine works with couples and business partners to help strengthen these foundations, creating a safe and supportive environment where both parties feel heard, understood, and respected.
Her approach focuses on improving communication, resolving conflict, and helping clients gain a deeper understanding of the underlying patterns and behaviours that contribute to recurring challenges. By exploring the root causes of disagreements, Lorraine supports clients in developing healthier ways of relating to one another and finding constructive, lasting solutions.
Lorraine also works with individuals following the end of a relationship. Together, they explore unresolved emotions, recurring relationship patterns, and valuable lessons from the past, helping clients heal, regain confidence, and move forward without carrying old issues into future relationships.
Whether the goal is to rebuild a relationship, improve a professional partnership, or prepare for a healthier future, Lorraine provides compassionate guidance to help clients create stronger, more fulfilling connections.
Might suit you if
You’re looking for more personal guidance as a couple rather than individually.
Coaching for Personal and Professional Success
Lorraine holds multiple qualifications in the fields of life coaching and performance coaching, supported by more than three decades of experience working with individuals, professionals, and businesses.
Throughout her career, she has developed her own proven coaching strategies, drawing on extensive training, practical experience, and a deep understanding of human behaviour. Her approach is designed to help people unlock their potential, overcome barriers, and create lasting, meaningful change.
Whether working with individuals seeking personal growth or supporting teams and organisations within the commercial and business sector, Lorraine helps clients improve performance, increase productivity, strengthen commitment, and achieve greater success.
Her coaching goes beyond achieving goals—it is about creating sustainable success while maintaining wellbeing, confidence, and fulfilment. By helping clients develop clarity, resilience, and effective habits, Lorraine empowers them to perform at their best and enjoy the journey as much as the results.
Might suit you if
You like talking things through, setting goals and having a clear plan.
That’s completely normal — most people don’t know which therapy or coaching style is “right” for them, and you don’t need to decide that on your own. The “might suit you if” note on each of the cards above is a rough guide, not a rule.
In practice, Lorraine will listen to what’s going on and suggest where to start — and that may well change as you go.
Many clients use more than one approach over time, and Lorraine will always talk this through with you rather than deciding in advance. If you’re still not sure, the simplest next step is just to get in touch.
Reaching out is often the hardest part — so it’s kept simple. Getting in touch doesn’t commit you to anything; it’s a chance to explain a little about what’s going on and find out whether working with Lorraine feels right for you.
01
Send a short message with a little about what’s going on. No detail required, and no commitment.
02
Lorraine will talk through what you’re looking for, and you can ask anything you want to know first.
03
She’ll suggest an approach that seems appropriate — coaching, a specific therapy, or a combination.
One short message is all it takes to start. Lorraine will come back to you and help you work out the next step.
If yours is not here, ask it directly. There is no cost and no pressure to book.
A holistic approach looks at the different factors that can influence a person’s wellbeing — emotional, mental and lifestyle — rather than focusing on one issue in isolation. It considers how these factors interact, rather than treating a single symptom on its own.
Coaching tends to focus on goals, clarity and practical action for the future. Therapeutic approaches such as NLP, hypnotherapy, homeopathy and kinesiology often work more directly with underlying patterns, thoughts or responses. Lorraine draws on both, depending on what’s most useful for you.
No. Many people get in touch without a clear idea of what they need — that’s a normal starting point, and part of the initial conversation is working this out together.
This depends entirely on what you’re working on and which approach you use. Lorraine will discuss this with you rather than committing to a fixed number in advance.
Lorraine works both in person in Colchester, Essex, and online. Some approaches suit remote sessions better than others, so it’s worth asking about the one you’re interested in.
You don’t need to have it all figured out before getting in touch. Tell Lorraine a little about what’s going on and she’ll come back to you with a suggested starting point.
