Lorianne Martin, LPC

Lorianne Martin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Pennsylvania with 25 years of experience. She focuses on relationship struggles, family conflict, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. She aims to make beginning therapy feel manageable and straightforward for people who are worried or overwhelmed.

She offers a direct, practical approach rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Sessions focus on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and building small, doable skills to change them. Motivational Interviewing and Trauma-Focused Therapy are also used when they fit a person's needs.

Martin has worked with people facing complex family roles, including those caring for grandchildren and those supporting children with developmental differences. She combines professional experience with personal perspective from caregiving in her own life. That background shapes a down-to-earth style and an emphasis on realistic, daily strategies.

People can expect a collaborative process that maps out goals and next steps. The therapist describes treatment as a journey and helps each person create a practical road map and toolkit for moving forward. Sessions are paced to match what clients can manage between meetings.

Therapy is conducted in English and is offered from her Pennsylvania practice. Prospective clients are asked to confirm current session options and scheduling details before booking.

How her approaches fit online therapy

CBT focuses on noticing the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and practicing new responses. Online sessions can use CBT tools to set small experiments, track progress, and troubleshoot daily challenges. Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change and build momentum; this approach works well in conversations that explore values and next steps. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on processing traumatic events safely and building coping skills for triggers and memories.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then tailor methods that make sense. She aims to build a joint plan so clients know what to try and why it might help.

Session options are not listed here, so confirm the current formats before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, avoid travel time, or use a shorter check-in when needed. It also lets people practice skills between sessions in their everyday routines. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and Trauma-Focused Therapy to remote meetings to focus on problem solving and skill-building without promising a specific outcome.
