About Lorene
She uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a listening space where a person’s goals guide the work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new ways of responding. Solution-Focused Therapy helps set small, concrete goals and track progress over time.
Many clients come with worries about relationships, self-esteem, grief, or addiction. Lorene also supports people facing aging and geriatric concerns, communication problems, and life-purpose questions. She brings experience with veterans and post-traumatic stress issues as part of her practice focus.
Sessions often include talking through recent problems, practicing coping skills, and planning manageable next steps. She encourages self-love, forgiveness work, and stronger communication skills. The goal is steady, usable change rather than quick fixes.
Lorene’s background blends long clinical experience with a faith-informed perspective when clients want it. People who prefer a respectful, steady guide may find her style helpful when navigating anxiety, depression, or major life transitions.

How her approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's goals, which helps people feel heard and set the pace for change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thought patterns and behaviors, and includes simple exercises and homework to try between sessions. Trauma-Focused Therapy aims to safely process past hurts and build coping strategies to reduce their hold on daily life.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best based on their goals, needs, and preferences. That process can include trying an approach for a few sessions and adjusting as progress is made.
Please confirm current session options before booking, as the biography does not specify formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a work break, or reducing the need to be on camera for every meeting. Many people find remote sessions help maintain continuity of care during life transitions and make it simpler to build new habits between appointments.
