She uses a practical, person-centered style to help people facing depression, anxiety, stress, sleep and eating concerns, and ADHD. Lorraine speaks English, Spanish, French, and Hebrew, and works with international clients when needed.

She focuses on helping people find steady ways to cope, adjust to life changes, and rebuild routines that support daily functioning. Sessions are grounded in straightforward techniques that aim for useful, reachable steps.

Lorraine draws on Solution-Focused Therapy to identify small changes that make a daily difference. She blends that with attentive listening and practical problem-solving to tailor each session to the person's needs. This often means setting short-term goals and checking progress week to week.

Over three decades she has supported people dealing with relationship strain, grief, chronic pain, addiction, and health-related stress. Her approach emphasizes clear goals, coping strategies, and small experiments clients can try between sessions. Lorraine aims to help people regain a sense of control and clearer direction.

People who choose her practice can expect calm, direct conversations that focus on what works now. The emphasis is on realistic steps, steady problem solving, and building momentum toward improved day-to-day wellbeing.

Solution-Focused care adapted to online work

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on what is working now and builds from small, concrete changes. It helps people set short-term goals, test small steps, and track progress week to week. This approach is often useful for stress, anxiety, sleep and eating concerns, and people adjusting to life transitions.

Her overall practice favors a practical, collaborative approach. She will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. Figuring out which techniques fit best is part of the early sessions, and adjustments are made as needed.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing appointments from different locations. They also let people schedule shorter check-ins when a quick follow-up would help, or choose a quieter setup that reduces interruptions. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. The therapist will help tailor session length and focus to what is most useful for everyday progress.
