About Lorianne
Lorianne Martin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 25 years of clinical experience. She focuses on relationship struggles, family concerns, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. She aims to make starting therapy straightforward and down-to-earth for worried parents and individuals.

Background and approach
Lorianne has worked with people navigating complex family roles, including caregivers and those raising grandchildren. She also has experience supporting parents of children with developmental differences and helps people facing chronic illness, cancer-related stress, and caregiving burdens. These areas inform how she frames treatment and problem solving.
Her style is open and direct. She encourages honest conversation about what has happened and what a person wants next. Therapy is collaborative: she listens, then helps build a personalized plan with tools and small steps that fit everyday life.
Lorianne offers several formats so families can connect in the way that suits them. She understands practical limits like time and energy, and she works to make sessions useful even when life feels overwhelming.
Therapeutic methods and online care
Many of her sessions use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. CBT is useful for depression, self-esteem struggles, and many relationship patterns.She also uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons for change and to build motivation in small, manageable steps. This approach is often helpful when someone feels stuck or uncertain about next steps. Trauma-Focused Therapy is used when past harmful experiences get in the way of daily life; it aims to reduce distress and teach coping skills that ease symptoms tied to trauma.
Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, history, and preferences, then recommend methods to try. Sessions can be adjusted over time as needs change so work stays relevant and practical.
Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to match different rhythms of life. Video lets people speak face to face, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing support between scheduled meetings. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep momentum between appointments.
