Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Lorraine Stamp
Lorraine Stamp uses practical, evidence-informed approaches tailored to each person's needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, and is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns of relating and emotional bonding developed in early relationships and can be helpful for intimacy, abandonment, and relationship difficulties. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages acceptance of difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values and committed action - it supports coping with painful emotions and moving toward a meaningful life.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Lorraine works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best align with their goals, preferences, and life circumstances. She adjusts strategies over time to fit what is most helpful for each person.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for busy lives - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging expand access and flexibility so therapy can fit into work, family, and caregiving responsibilities. Licensed professionals can use these formats to maintain continuity of care, support regular progress, and make it easier to engage in therapy from home or other convenient locations.
