About me

I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 17 years of experience working w/ children, teens, and families. I am trained in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy which is a best practice for the diagnosis of PTSD in children and teens. I have years of experience working with children and teens with the diagnoses of ADHD, Anxiety, and Depression as well as self harm behaviors and suicidal thoughts. I also have experience working with families with attachment issues and serious breakdowns of communication and relationships.

Family therapy is a must with children and teens. The family system must change in order for one person to change and all children and teens need at least one supportive person in their lives to build resilience and if at all possible that person needs to be their parent or guardian.

Very communicative and responsive. My teen has been pleased thus far with her guidance and looks forwards to their discussions.

Lorri is working with our teenager and helping her learn to manage stress as she navigates this challenging time of life. We are pleased with Lorri’s treatment and her approach to therapy. She is responsive and stays in contact with us, while also checking in regularly with our daughter. We highly recommend Lorri!

Lorri is a great listener. She offers clarifying questions and helps me think through complicated issues so that I can learn more about myself and others. She is helping me discover myself. She has great strategies for thinking through tricky problems without coming up with the solution herself; rather she guides me to coming up with a solution that I will be happy with.

Lorri’s very professional and kind! I haven’t had therapy before but she was very easy to talk to from the get go. I’ve always been nervous about being judged or talked down to, and she has been nothing but open & understanding. She asks questions and gets to the root of the problem, offering ideas and behaviors that I can benefit from. I feel really comfortable opening up to her and to have her help. If you are younger and struggling with needing therapy, I would definitely recommend Lorri!
