About Lorelle
Lorelle Busby is a BACP-registered counsellor with five years of experience helping people face stress, anxiety, low mood and the fallout from trauma. She meets clients where they are and treats them as experts in their own lives. Lorelle aims to create a calm space to talk, think and try new ways of coping.
She uses Systemic therapy to look at how relationships and routines shape day-to-day problems. That helps when issues involve parenting, blended family concerns, or ongoing communication difficulties.
Background and approach
Lorelle also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice painful thoughts and still act in line with their values. Attachment-based ideas guide work around abandonment, adoption and foster care, and other patterns of relating. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is used when practical tools and clear steps are helpful for anxiety, sleep or eating-related difficulties.
Sessions focus on simple, manageable strategies rather than medical labels. Her background includes supporting people struggling with self-esteem, intimacy-related issues, anger, grief and caregiver strain. She also works with concerns such as autism, avoidant personality traits, hoarding and body image in a practical way.
The emphasis is on finding what helps in daily life. Mindfulness practices and client-centred listening are woven into sessions to build calm and choice. Lorelle uses a collaborative style - she listens, offers options, and tests approaches together with each person.
This keeps therapy relevant and grounded.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Systemic therapy looks at how relationships, routines and roles shape a person’s difficulties. Online sessions can map those patterns by talking about daily interactions, family routines and communication habits so practical changes can be tried between meetings.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck and choose actions that match their values. In remote sessions this often becomes short practices, values clarification and small, real-world experiments to try between appointments.
Attachment-based work focuses on patterns of relating and how early experiences affect trust and closeness now. Online conversations can be used to identify those patterns and rehearse different responses in the relationships that matter.
Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will listen to your goals and try methods that fit your needs and preferences, adjusting the plan together as progress is made.
Online formats offer flexibility to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction, phone sessions use less bandwidth, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These options make it easier to keep momentum and to use therapy at times that suit everyday schedules.
