About Lorena

Lorena Ginn is an LPCC - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor practicing in Kentucky with seven years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, and concerns about life purpose. She also supports issues such as low self-esteem, social anxiety, panic, and obsessive thoughts.

Lorena focuses on practical steps rather than abstract promises. She uses approaches that help clients notice unhelpful patterns and try different responses in daily life. Sessions include talking through how symptoms affect routines, identifying small changes, and practicing new skills between meetings.

Her work often addresses trauma and its aftereffects. She incorporates trauma-focused tools to reduce distressing memories and to improve emotional regulation. For people dealing with substance use or addictive behaviors she blends motivational methods with skill-based strategies to clarify goals and increase readiness for change.

Life purpose is a named area of focus. Lorena helps people who feel stuck after a life change or who are questioning what matters next. Conversations look at values, practical options, and steps that can make day-to-day life feel more purposeful without promising a single answer.

Sessions also target mood disorders and related concerns such as Seasonal Affective Disorder and disruptive mood patterns. She uses cognitive-behavioral techniques to address unhelpful thinking, and client-centered listening to shape the pace and focus of work.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so clients feel heard and can name what matters to them; it helps when someone wants to sort through values and life direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches practical skills to manage anxiety, mood, and panic symptoms. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused approach that targets disturbing memories and the reactions they cause, often used when past events continue to affect day-to-day life.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try out strategies, and adjust based on what is most helpful for the person. Decisions about methods are made together rather than prescribed up front.

This profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a workday or a busy schedule and can reduce travel time. Some clients prefer shorter check-ins or audio-only conversations when camera use is difficult, while others choose longer sessions for deeper work. Discuss format preferences when scheduling so sessions fit everyday life and goals.
