About Lorelle

Lorelle Busby is a counsellor who focuses on practical help for parents feeling overwhelmed. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship strain and parenting pressures. Lorelle aims to meet each person where they are and build on the strengths they already have.

She uses straightforward conversations to help people make small changes that add up. Sessions tend to focus on what feels most urgent, like sleep, eating, concentration, or coping with big life changes.

Background and approach

Lorelle encourages clients to notice patterns and try new ways of responding to hard moments. Her background includes five years of professional practice and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That experience has exposed her to a broad range of concerns such as trauma and abuse, ADHD, attachment issues, and caregiver stress.

Lorelle draws on several practical approaches, including cognitive behavioural techniques, acceptance work, and emotionally-focused ideas about relationships. She uses these methods to help people change unhelpful thoughts, build values-based goals, and improve emotional connection where needed. Sessions can include short exercises, reflective listening and goal-setting.

The focus is on helping someone leave a session feeling a little clearer and more able to try one manageable step. Lorelle invites people to take things at their own pace while she offers steady, down-to-earth support.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches for online parenting support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for stress, anxiety and for building steady routines that support parenting and daily life.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses practical exercises to change thinking patterns and tackle sleep, mood and eating difficulties that get in the way of day-to-day functioning.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on emotions and connection in important relationships. It can help people understand emotional patterns and improve how they communicate with others when relationships feel strained.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Lorelle will work collaboratively to decide which methods suit a person’s needs, goals and preferences. Treatment can shift over time as priorities change and small experiments show what helps.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low, live chat works for quicker check-ins and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, school runs and busy days while keeping therapy consistent.
