About Lorraine
Lorraine Stamp is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker - Registered (LCSW-R) licensed in New York with 28 years of practice. She lists stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, grief, parenting and related issues among the areas she addresses. Lorraine presents these concerns plainly and focuses on practical steps clients can take at home and in their relationships.
She listens first and then helps people set short-term goals. Sessions often begin with a look at what is most pressing and move toward skills that can be used between meetings. Lorraine uses a mix of approaches rather than a single method, and she draws on techniques that have helped others with mood, coping, and relationship strain.
Lorraine trained in social work and holds a Master of Social Work. She spent many years providing therapy to both groups and individuals while supervising other clinicians. That background informs how she structures sessions and follows up on progress.
Her work includes attention to attachment and relational patterns, and to behavioral strategies for mood and anxiety. She also addresses parenting stress, blended family issues, adoption and foster care concerns, and caregiver strain. Practical tools such as mindfulness, behavioral techniques, and communication skills are part of the approach.
Clients can expect straightforward discussion about goals and next steps. Lorraine aims for clear, usable strategies people can try between sessions, and she checks in on what is or isn’t working as therapy continues.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and commit to values-driven actions. It is often useful for stress, anxiety, and life changes because it focuses on purposeful steps rather than getting stuck on thoughts. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relational patterns that grew up in families and can help with intimacy, abandonment issues, and communication problems by examining how past relationships shape current ones.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lorraine will talk with a client about goals, try strategies, and adjust methods over time. That collaborative process means the choice of techniques comes from what the person wants and how they respond, not from a pre-set plan.
The therapist's original biography did not list specific online session formats. Before booking, confirm which formats are offered. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments around parenting and work, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce the need to commute. Licensed professionals can use mindfulness exercises, behavioral homework, and communication coaching in remote sessions so work continues between meetings.
