Lorna approaches every client from a person-centered perspective, meeting them wherever they may be on their healing journey and walking with them as they progress at their own pace. She loves to help clients unravel the source of their presenting issues through a psychodynamic lens focused on childhood experiences and family dynamics while also considering multicultural and environmental factors.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

New clients can book their intake session (90-minutes) through Zocdoc and opt for tele-health or in-person counseling sessions. Clients will receive a phone call prior to the intake session to have the opportunity to ask questions and share goals/needs for counseling services. This process is important for clients to feel safe and confident in the therapist they choose to work with. Once the intake session is competed, new clients typically start out with weekly 60-minute sessions to start. Frequency of counseling can always be re-evaluated once a strong therapeutic relationship has been established.
