Hello I'm Laurie....counsellor, psychotherapist, supervisor and audiologist.

To be honest...Listening has been the thread running through my entire working life.

For over thirty plus years I've worked as an Audiologist, again and again I found that people came to see me about their hearing, but what they wanted was someone who would truly listen. Many shared worries, grief, loneliness or pressures they hadn't spoken about elsewhere. Those conversations eventually led me into counselling, where listening became not simply part of my job, but the heart of it.

I work with an open heart and mind to look at life's deeper spiritual meanings; all to meet your individual needs.

I work with an open heart and mind, to meet the needs of each individual.

Counselling is a safe container and personal space to bring up challenges, struggles, beliefs and desires for change. Through this process you will gain greater understanding of yourself, your relationships, your life and behaviour patterns. Together we can build on this, by learning tools and skills that will help you deal better when these challenges or difficulties arise and assist you to move forward. This counselling process gently unfolds, as you develop into your best self amidst the the current situation, difficulty, pain or loss. I listen intently and you will be deeply heard alongside your journey of development and change.

Training, and counselling process

I hold Level 4 in Therapeutic Counselling alongside Level 5 in Psychotherapeutic counselling and Level 7 (NCIP) advanced diploma in Counselling supervision. An accredited counsellor through the ±«ÓãÊÓƵ& NCPS.

Counselling training started at college in 2016 alongside my clinical placement at Cruse Bereavement Care and later 'Kooth - Xenzone for client hours.

Fully ±«ÓãÊÓƵRegistered 2019 and Accredited July 2025. I sit within SCoPEd 'Column B' reflecting much deeper training, clinical experience, and professional responsibility. Accreditation shows my ongoing commitment to sharing BACP's high values and standards and ensures you will be working with an ethical, competent practitioner 'psychotherapist'..

Other professionals and Consultative supervision:

I supervise counsellors and offer consultative supervision to professionals who look after or care for others such as doctors, vets, nurses etc. This container stops work stresses bleeding into the rest of our lives. I liken it to a pressure valve, or just a honest time to take freely, to reflect and process. In todays hectic world, having a 'neutral person' will help prevent burnout and help to improve work/life balance

First sessions can feel odd as it is unique to you. My aim is to always put you at ease whilst we discuss the practicalities of how we might work together. Normally we discuss what brought you to counselling, whether this is an area I can work within, how many sessions might be needed, when and how counselling is brought to a close. I will discuss confidentiality and record-keeping and encourage you if there is a need for something to be done differently to meet your needs. My aim is to make sure, everything is clear and nothing is confused and you are clear on how counselling works and how I work.

 About me and my practice

Hello I'm Lorrie (Lorraine), a counsellor, psychotherapist, supervisor and audiologist.

My professional qualifications support the above, e.g. Level 4 in Therapeutic Counselling alongside  Level 5 in Psychotherapeutic counselling and Level 7 (NCIP) advanced diploma in Counselling supervision. 

SCoPED Column B Accredited ±«ÓãÊÓƵ& PNCPS.

Supervision encompasses the person centred approach and its core conditions of Empathy, UPR and Congruence whilst bringing together PCA models and some Integrative models to form a Hybrid approach depending on individuals needs.

I am always happy to hear from supervisees attracted to working with me alongside mature trainees from other professions who are starting to train or those qualified in other professions who are moving into private practice.

How to contact me: 

Please text me on 07928 344770 or email me on Lorrainegolding45@gmail.com 

We can then discuss if I am a good fit for your supervision needs.

My supervision ethos

I hold the belief that not one single supervision method is effective for all situations and thus we need more freedom and flexibility when it comes to working as a counsellor..

I am person-centred trained and grounded myself with this but always challenged myself to become the best supervisor I can be by studying different approaches 'humanistic' and studying Level 7 Integrative supervision models. 

This provides some flexibility when it comes to supervision as I  form a hybrid approach almost 'helicopter view' of the counselling process.

Our work would be to form a strong therapeutic relationship together, a deliberate joint endeavour with the aim of  improving the quality of work, transform client relationships, and 'Be in the moment'. 

Our first meeting is always free to you 30 mins in total.

This will be a discussion around the work required, how we might work together based on our approaches, experience, clients types, specialisms and practice. We both needs to feel this is right otherwise I might not be the right supervisor for you.

My fees reflect my ruralness in Truro with lower wages whilst taking into account the cost of living for all counsellors.

I have a 'Pay forward' agreement so if you wish to pay higher fee based where you live and want to support a new counsellor needing supervision then 5% can be added which will be offered towards their fees. That would be acceptable to me.

Supervision days are Tuesday or Friday with the occasional Saturday to flex for holidays or sickness etc.

Please call or email me if you wish to speak together and book your free 30 mins session.

I have availability either 'in-person' Truro or Online across the UK.

I work during the daytime mostly on Tuesdays & Fridays with flexibility online into the early evening Online.

I have leave booked 4th September 2026 through to 11th September 2026. 

Hi, I'm Laurie holding an Advanced Diploma in Integrative counselling supervision (NCIP accredited Level 7). Supervision is grounded in the Person-Centred Approach and utilise these models.

Hawkins & Shohet Process model 6 eyed and 7th eyed (organisational),

Inskipp/Proctor - Functional model

Carroll - 7 Generic Tasks of Supervision

Mearns/Lambers - Approach orientated supervision

Page/Wosket - A Cyclical Model

These are listed here as attract supervisees from different modalities alongside PCA. 

How to get in touch:

Please text or ring me 07928 344770 or email me directly and we can discuss supervision needs.

Fees:

Online registered counsellors: 60 mins online £60 or 90 mins £86, 

Students receive 15% reduction online 

Supervision is on Tuesday or Fridays with occasional saturdays to flex for holidays and/or sickness etc.

I understand developmental stages 'Stoltenberg & Delworth' and consider supervisee experience levels and what is needed in supervision, whether I am a good match. This is not about being too rigid but about having flexibility. With supervision my commitment to ethical practice is to have the clients best interests at heart. Supervision needs to cover all the different parts of us not just the counsellor side but the human being, our spirituality etc. I strive for deeper human connections and look forward to hearing from you. I am particularly attracted to working with mature counsellor or those retraining and coming from other professions.

I can provide supervision to other professionals who are involved in caring for others (consultative supervision) such as vets, doctors, NHS staff, teachers etc. This works as a container to stop work stresses bleeding into the rest of our lives. I liken it to a pressure valve, or just an honest time to talk freely, to reflect and process. In todays hectic world, having a neutral person will help to prevent burnout and help to improve work/life balance.
