About Lorraine
Lorraine Stamp is a licensed clinical social worker with 28 years of experience. She welcomes people coping with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, addiction, and codependency. Lorraine aims to help people find practical ways to feel steadier and more in control of their day-to-day life.
She focuses first on listening to what is happening now and on the goals someone brings. Early sessions often map immediate concerns and set a few clear steps to try between visits. Lorraine uses a mix of approaches so sessions can be tailored to each person's needs and pace.
Her background includes long-term work providing individual and group therapy and supervising other therapists for many years. Lorraine holds a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and a Master of Social Work; she lists the LCSW-R credential. That combination informs how she combines problem-solving with emotional support.
In the room she blends cognitive techniques, mindfulness, and attachment-focused ideas to help with things like relationship patterns, coping skills, sleep or eating struggles, and managing strong emotions. She also draws on strategies used for trauma-related concerns and addiction recovery when helpful.
People often come to address life transitions, parenting strain, work stress, or recurring relationship conflicts. Lorraine aims to work collaboratively so clients leave with clearer options and small, doable steps toward the changes they want.
Approaches that guide online work and what to expect
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) invites people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings while focusing on what matters most to them. It helps with anxiety, stress, and navigating life changes by building actions that match personal values. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current connections and helps people shift those patterns to improve trust and closeness.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Lorraine will work with each person to test methods and pick what fits best for their goals and preferences. That collaborative stance means approaches can change as needs evolve rather than sticking rigidly to one method.
The therapist's biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so therapy fits around work or caregiving. Licensed professionals can use these same therapeutic tools by phone or video when those formats are available, while keeping the focus on practical skills, relationship patterns, and coping strategies that translate into everyday life.
