About Lorelle
Lorelle Busby is a counsellor who focuses on helping people cope with stress, anxiety and depression. She works in a straightforward way and helps clients notice their strengths. She aims to make starting therapy feel like a manageable first step for someone who is worried or unsure.
Lorelle believes each person knows their own story. She listens first and helps people name what matters to them. From there she looks for small, practical steps that fit into everyday life.
Background and approach
Her work draws on approaches such as cognitive behavioural techniques and acceptance and commitment ideas to help notice unhelpful thoughts and build new habits. She also uses attachment-informed ways of looking at relationships and emotional patterns. Over five years of practice in the United Kingdom have given her experience with a wide range of concerns.
These include trauma and abuse, self‑esteem, grief, ADHD and sleep or eating difficulties. Lorelle also supports people dealing with parenting strain, career stress and big life changes. Sessions are offered in English and can be arranged by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging.
She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. If someone is ready to try therapy, she asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire and then book a session that suits them.

Online support
Attachment‑based therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current emotions and behaviours. It can help people who struggle with intimacy, rejection fears or difficulties trusting others to understand where those reactions come from.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lorelle will discuss options and test what fits a person's needs, goals and preferences. She aims to collaborate on a plan and adjust methods as the work unfolds.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls enable face‑to‑face conversation when that is preferred. Phone sessions work well when someone needs a quicker check‑in or has limited bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging allow short, regular contact and can fit around busy days or shift work. These formats make it easier to keep therapy going around family, work and other commitments.
