Online therapeutic approaches and care

Lorraine integrates cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy into her online work. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and habit-related concerns. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness to support people who struggle with intense emotions or relationship challenges. She also draws on attachment-based ideas to explore how early and current relationship patterns affect intimacy and trust, which can be useful for relationship difficulties and attachment concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Lorraine collaborates with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors techniques and pacing to each person so therapy feels relevant and manageable.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing clients to access licensed professionals from different settings and schedules. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, fit sessions into busy lives, and try different formats to see what works best.
