More About Lorraine Goundry

Hello and thank you for taking the time to find out a little bit more about me! As a Health and Wellness Coach I support people with long term health conditions to improve their wellness and be energised to live their fullest health potential.

I have been a Pharmacist for 25 years and have worked in NHS GP Practices for the past 10 years. I know the huge positive benefits that lifestyle, and can do beliefs have in long-term illness and that not everything is solved with a tablet! Medication is only one part of health; whole health includes how we approach our daily lives and our belief systems,which are proven to be as equally important, if not more so, and can allow remission of some illnesses. I feel strongly about the need to close the the gap with current health services and give people the time they need to be listened to and fully supported.

How can I specifically help YOU?

My own chronic pain experience and understanding of the gap in health services sparked my passion to gain a coaching qualification, so I could support people with long term illness to discover the can do and not focus on the can’t. 

Working with a coach is about empowerment - I will help you achieve and discover things about yourself and what holds you back from living the life you deserve.  My coaching qualification was my journey to discovering some of my greatest attributes. I am a people person and a great empathetic listener, who builds strong rapport and trust in relationships.

If you struggle with overwhelm and frustration living with any of the following-

• Type 2 Diabetes and Pre-diabetes,
• Heart Disease
• Chronic pain conditions
• IBS
• Fibromyalgia
• Chronic Fatigue/ME
• Long Covid 

I will give you the 1:1 time you need to make the change you want and get back to being YOU.

Helping you to -

• understand what matters to you in your life and living well with your condition
• set realistic long term goals around lifestyle and symptom management 
• take the small steps needed to meet your goal - even the smallest steps can make a huge difference!
• meet specific health goals or management plans already agreed by you and your Health Professional
• understand the mind body connection to staying well
• work through unhelpful thoughts, feelings and emotions that are getting in the way of your wellness
• be your own self coach to continue being motivated and accountable for change once our sessions end
