Hello, I’m Debbie Amal Loring, and I’m so glad you’re here. Over the past 25 years, I’ve been privileged to help clients from all over the UK and beyond. Now that I’m based in the beautiful Lake District, I often meet with people from nearby places like Manchester, Liverpool, Yorkshire, and Cumbria. Today, I want to talk to you about something that affects so many of us: worry.

What Is Worry?

Worry is something we all experience. It’s our mind’s way of trying to prepare for the unknown. You might find yourself thinking over and over about a situation, imagining all the things that could go wrong. It’s exhausting, isn’t it?

Here’s what worry tends to look like:

Replaying scenarios in your mind, focusing on risks
Fixating on “what if” questions
Struggling with concentration or feeling constantly on edge

If this sounds familiar, know that you’re not alone.

The Impact of Excessive Worry

When worry takes over, it can have a real impact on your life. It might stop you from enjoying the present or even affect your health. I’ve seen how worry can spiral to the point where it makes people unwell. Yet, so often, the things we worry about never actually happen.

Here are some ways excessive worry might be affecting you:

Feeling constantly stressed or overwhelmed
Finding it hard to relax or sleep
Straining relationships or avoiding things you usually enjoy

Imagine if you could take all that energy you’re spending on worry and use it to focus on the outcomes you do want. It’s possible, and I can help you get there.

Why Do We Worry?

Worry often comes from our need to feel in control. We think that by anticipating every risk, we can avoid pain or failure. It’s understandable—you’re trying to protect yourself and the people you care about.

What if you could trust that things will work out? That the mortgage will get paid, the bills will be covered, and your family will be okay? What if you had the tools to approach life with confidence instead of fear?
