Getting to know Dr. Lorna Foster
I bring with me years of therapeutic experience with children, adolescents, adults, at-risk youth, incarcerated young people, 12-Steppers, and men and women with addiction and other issues. My clinical experience has taught me that people struggle with many of the same things: trauma, anxiety, depression, boundaries, trust, self-esteem, and more. We all need trusted confidantes who see and accept us exactly as we are; caring witnesses who can see the world through our lens; wise collaborators who help us explore issues from many sides; and strong advocates who empathize with us as we make our own mistakes and celebrate with us as we learn, grow, and heal through this process. I aspire to fulfill as many of these roles for my clients as possible.
My approach is eclectic. It makes room for all parts of you—mental, emotional, social, psychological, spiritual, physical, cultural, and more—to be present, considered, nurtured, supported, and honored. I am trained in a range of therapeutic methods, including Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure & Response Prevention (ERP), Psychosynthesis, and Psychodrama, to name a few. I use these approaches as needed to help you develop greater self-intimacy and break through mental, psychological, and emotional blocks to achieve your goals and live your life in fullness.
I hold a PhD in Clinical Psychology and a Master’s in Psychology from Sofia University, as well as a Bachelor’s degree from Cornell University.
