Lorraine is very professional, thoughtful and understanding. She immediately shows that she listens and takes the patient seriously. I tried many different forms of theraphy and talked to a handful of therapists, but she is by far the best and most intuitive. She gives the impression of having a spot on guts feeling in combination with knowledge, which I find to be an amazing combination. She doesn't push her own narrative but allows the patient to feel validated and understood. I am glad I can talk to her and would recommend her at any time!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Very helpful and empathetic lady. Kind and truly listens and remembers what I've told her.
Lorraine is really talented, she is one of the most compassionate, clued in, intuitive therapists I've seen and her training and experience has given her a sharp eye. She always creates a really free and open space, in which I feel like I can share anything.
