Getting to know Lorraine LaVallee
Life can be challenging and complicated. Choosing a therapist doesn’t have to be. I believe that building a genuine, open, and honest therapeutic relationship with my client is the best way to connect. Together, we will work to explore areas of your life that are challenging in order to set you on a path of happiness, fulfillment, and purpose.
I hold a Master’s in Social Work from California State University, Dominguez Hills. My experience in the field of chemical dependency has allowed me the privilege of helping those struggling with addiction and mental health disorders as well as their families. I have worked in residential treatment, intensive outpatient treatment, outpatient treatment, community-based, and school settings. Over the past fifteen years, this work has given me a compassionate perspective for those struggling to get and stay sober. I am enthusiastic and passionate about helping clients find unique and creative solutions to problems. Parents, would you like some peace in your home? Need support dealing with a teen with addiction issues? I can help.
My approach to therapy is supportive, non-judgmental, and empathetic, which allows me to connect on a deeper level with my clients. My practice philosophy includes CBT, DBT, positive psychology, strengths-based, motivational interviewing, trauma-informed care, EMDR, and a person-centered approach to help facilitate positive change. If you are interested in beginning or resuming your therapy journey to work toward being the best version of yourself, I encourage you to reach out! I look forward to getting to know you and being a part of your journey. Live the life you want and deserve!
