Background and approach

Lorraine draws on a mix of methods to match what a person needs in the moment. Her background includes a Bachelor’s degree in psychology and a Master’s in Social Work, and she holds the NY LCSW-R credential. For many years she provided therapy for individuals and groups and supervised other clinicians at a large organization.

That experience shaped her emphasis on straightforward, usable strategies. Lorraine describes her style as collaborative and down-to-earth. She helps people notice what matters most, set realistic goals, and practice small changes that add up.

Common topics include coping with life changes, parenting stress, caregiver strain, codependency, and challenges linked to attachment and abandonment. Outside of work she enjoys swimming and cooking, and values family time as a mother and grandmother. Her approach is steady and practical, aimed at helping people regain balance and move toward the life they want.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values even when hard feelings show up. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavioral experiments to reduce distress and improve routines like sleep and eating. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people build safer ways of connecting and trusting others.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Lorraine works collaboratively with each person to choose and adapt methods based on their goals, history, and preferences. She starts by listening, then suggests options and checks in to make sure the work feels helpful and realistic.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions are practical when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging offer brief check-ins, skill practice, and flexible ways to stay connected between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep working on goals from different places and schedules.
