About Lorraine
Lorraine Stamp is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker - Registered (LCSW-R) with 28 years of clinical experience based in New York. She greets clients with a calm, practical approach and aims to help people move toward clearer goals. Lorraine is a parent and grandparent who enjoys swimming and cooking, and she brings a grounded, human perspective to sessions.
She spent more than two decades providing therapy to groups and individuals and supervising other clinicians. Lorraine holds a Bachelor in Psychology and a Master of Social Work, achieved with advanced standing. Her long career includes work with a wide range of concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, addictions, relationship struggles, parenting stress, grief, and issues related to adoption and foster care.
In sessions she starts by listening carefully to what is happening now. She asks about practical goals and then maps small, doable steps forward. Lorraine uses a mix of approaches tailored to each person rather than a single method, and she explains options so people can choose what feels right.
Her work includes methods that help with thoughts and behaviors, emotional regulation, mindful awareness, and strengthening relationships. Lorraine also offers support for career stress, caregiving strain, and compassion fatigue. She emphasizes collaboration and steady progress over time.
People who book a first visit should expect clear conversation about goals and a plan for next steps. Lorraine aims to make therapy understandable and useful on ordinary days as well as during harder times.
Approaches that guide online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people build more secure ways of relating and managing emotions.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals and recommend methods that fit your situation. Together you can try techniques and adjust the plan based on what helps most.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking because the biography does not list them. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people use video or phone options depending on what works for them and their day. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises from ACT and attachment work to remote sessions so you can practice skills between meetings and track progress over time.
