Finding Your Path Through Life’s Toughest Terrains - Specialist in Anxiety, Trauma & Lasting Change
When life feels like an uphill struggle, or the path ahead is clouded by anxiety and fear, it helps to have an experienced guide by your side.
I’m Loraine, and at Gracious Mountain Therapies, I help you navigate through your toughest emotional terrains. Whether you are facing the heavy fog of grief, the steep climb of anxiety, or the roadblocks of past trauma, I provide a compassionate, safe space to help you reclaim your future.
With nearly 30 years of experience in holistic wellness, I combine the deep relaxation of Hypnotherapy with the rapid, science-based results of BWRT® (BrainWorking Recursive Therapy). My approach isn't just about 'talking'—it’s about 'resetting' your mind so you can move forward with authentic confidence.
As an Accredited Professional in Hypnotherapy and BWRT® I can offer you a warm and friendly service, which is strictly confidential and non judgemental, with the versatility of being able to see you either in my relaxed clinic in North Lopham (near Diss) or via secure video link (Zoom/Teams) from anywhere in the UK.
Here are some of the areas I can help you with:-
Stress & Anxiety: Reclaiming Calm - When your mind is stuck in 'fight or flight,' you need more than relaxation—you need a reset. I specialize in breaking the cycle of overwhelm, helping you find your inner resilience.
Loss & Bereavement: Navigating the Fog - Grief is a personal journey, but you don’t have to walk it alone. I help you process the weight of loss - whether a loved one, a relationship, or a life transition - to find a path toward peace.
Confidence & Self-Esteem: Quieting the Inner Critic - Does self-doubt hold you back? We work together to identify limiting beliefs and use advanced therapy to build unshakable self-belief.
Fears & Phobias: Freedom to Move - Phobias make your world feel small. Using BWRT®, we can often 'rewire' your brain’s automatic fear response rapidly, giving you back your freedom.
Ready to start your journey? The first step is often the hardest, so I make it easy. I offer a Free, No-Obligation 30-Minute Consultation. This is a chance for us to talk about the 'terrain' you are facing and for me to explain how we can reach the summit together.
