Lorraine's clinical expertise includes depression, anxiety, trauma, and PTSD. She provides individual and family therapy. Lorraine is also a certified DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy) clinician. As her client, you will explore and learn the skills needed in order to be mindful in all situations - to use your "wise" and not "emotional" mind. This approach will allow you to think more clearly, relax in stressful situations, stay in the moment, verbalize your needs, and address problems in a more focused and productive manner.

I purposely went back to school for my second master's in social work and mental health, not to spend all my money, but to learn best how to work with the people in my practice. In my 30 plus years, it's rapport, dedication, agreement and hard work and maybe a laugh or two! Working on feeling better is hard work.

Partnering with people who are open to developing their spiritual potential and finding out-of-the-box ways of healing by interfacing with a fuller spectrum of life is the driving force of the work I do. If you are longing to find a way to become more fully alive, please give me a call.

I work with couples, adults, families, and adolescents, dealing with issues of anxiety, depression, anger management, parenting, bereavement, and relationship work using the modalities of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), family dynamics, communication skills training, and couples counseling.

I serve a variety. Focusing on early recovery, grief and loss and emotional distress. i am accepting new clients on a self pay basis

When human beings experience trauma or loss, it is not uncommon for their world to unravel. As a bereaved parent I understand how intense the journey can be. Let me help you adjust to life after a loss by working through the feelings, thoughts and memories associated with your loss.

I use an eclectic mix of modalities and interventions. My clients find me to be warm, compassionate and caring. A few things set me apart, I provide my clients with tools, give homework and tell it like it is. I specializes in helping people get unstuck; from a behavior or way of thinking. I work well with people who are stuck in depression, anxiety or recovering from trauma, healing from divorce ( adults and children), and those who want to change the dynamic of an unhealthy relationship.

I have been in private practice since 2000. I have extensive experience working with ADHD, Anxiety, Depression, Mood Disorders, parenting struggles and many other diagnostic entities.

In order to feel better, it is essential to be comfortable with your therapist. I am down to earth and have a good sense of humor which can help make my office a place where it is easier to talk about difficult issues. Therapy is sometimes scary and it can be a lot of work to make changes in your life. I want to make it easier for you find new ways to solve problems, manage mental health issues and life stressors, and cope with difficult people and relationships in your life.

I am a licensed mental health counselor and licensed marriage and therapy therapist. I have counseled individuals and couples for 40 years. I bring a great depth and breadth of expertise to my work and a practical approach. I help clients learn about themselves and practice radical self-acceptance. I received a Ph.D. in Psychology at Saybrook Institute in San Francisco and a Master's Degree in Counseling Psychology at Antioch New England University. I wrote Relationship Transformation: How to Have Your Cake and Eat It Too with my wife, Mary Ellen.

For the past 34 years, I have dedicated my career to helping people find true meaning and life purpose. I believe focusing on the present moment can be a grounding experience. Exploration of the past is part of the process but it is not where we will linger. We will give attention to the present moment, create short-term goals and long-term goals. Together we can find a way to achieve acceptance of your life as it is now and establish a sense of peace.

Empowerment is the key to change and personal growth. I believe that we each carry within us the core skills and abilities needed to address lifes challenges, but that too often we become distanced from our talents and loose sight of our innate strengths and unique skills. Through the use of an empathic, compasionate listening style, a good sense of humor and an eclectic set of clinical skills my goal is to help people become reacquainted with their core strengths and to help them develop the skills and confidence with which to pursue their dreams, whatever they may be!
