See online therapy optionsAbout Lorena
Lorena Ginn is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Kentucky with seven years of experience. She works with people facing depression, anxiety, trauma, and addiction. She also focuses on building self-esteem and addressing social anxiety and life purpose concerns.
She uses practical, structured methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. Sessions emphasize clear tools and small steps that can be tried between meetings. That includes ways to manage panic attacks, mood swings, and intrusive thoughts.
Lorena pays attention to patterns of shame, isolation, and emotional regulation. She helps people unpack how those patterns affect daily choices. Motivational Interviewing techniques are used when people want to change behaviors such as substance use or smoking and need help finding their own reasons to act.
For trauma-related concerns she draws on methods designed to reduce the intensity of past memories and their impact on current life. The work aims to reduce distress and increase the ability to engage in everyday activities. Client-Centered Therapy is used to focus on each person's priorities and present concerns.
Her approach is practical and collaborative. People who choose her typically do focused work on specific problems like panic attacks, OCD symptoms, or seasonal mood shifts. Before a first session, she asks about immediate needs and what a useful next step would look like.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
CBT is a structured method that helps people recognize unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. It usually involves setting concrete goals, practicing brief exercises, and using simple between-session tasks to test what changes. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on what the person wants to address now and uses reflective listening to help clarify priorities. EMDR addresses disturbing memories by allowing the mind to process them differently, which can reduce how upsetting those memories feel.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Lorena will collaborate with each person to decide which methods best match their needs, goals, and comfort level. That choice can change over time as progress is made and different challenges arise.
Specific session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into a busy week because they remove travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and can make it easier to schedule around work or school. The focus is on practical steps that can be used between sessions so therapy fits into everyday life rather than being separate from it.
