Many people experience difficult childhoods, and mine was no exception. My father’s alcoholism and emotional abuse created a tumultuous, on-again, off-again relationship between my parents.  I never understood why my mother endured it.  She often repeated two phrases: “Children learn what they live and live what they learn,” and “We all become what we hate.”  I didn’t grasp their meaning until adulthood, when I found myself drawn to unhealthy relationships.  I was treated poorly, made to feel unworthy, and my partners often struggled with addiction.  These were learned behaviors.

My most recent toxic, on-again, off-again relationship, spanning eleven years, finally became my catalyst for change.  Unhappy and lacking self-confidence, my life mirrored my mother’s, a pattern I desperately wanted to break.  Approaching 56, I craved happiness and an end to the cycle.

Traditional therapy hadn’t brought me the peace I sought.  My rigid, black-and-white thinking prevented me from finding solutions.  Frustrated, I knew I needed a different approach.  A friend recommended Lorraine, and I decided to try something new.  It was the best decision I ever made.

Lorraine’s methods were unconventional and effective.  She introduced me to tools like tapping, meditation, and journaling to manage anxiety and stress.  She emphasized self-kindness and gratitude, which proved transformative.

I highly recommend Lorraine to anyone struggling.  Her skill, kindness, and compassion make her an exceptional resource.
