Lorraine Latchman

Lorraine Latchman is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) based in Colorado with six years of clinical experience. She focuses on trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, self-esteem, and compassion fatigue, and also pays attention to life purpose concerns that can follow big changes. Lorraine works with people who feel successful outwardly but inwardly stuck or carrying an unnamed ache.

Lorraine looks at patterns that often begin in childhood, including attachment wounds and family dynamics passed across generations. She describes intergenerational trauma and the cumulative weight of living in systems that can cause harm. In sessions she listens for those long-running patterns and how they shape relationships and self-view.

Her approach uses attachment perspectives and practical skills drawn from trauma resiliency frameworks. She also applies a decolonizing lens when relevant, which means noticing cultural and systemic forces that affect a person’s sense of belonging and self. Conversations move between understanding history and finding small, usable steps forward.

Sessions are grounded and direct. Lorraine helps people name what they are carrying and works on clearer communication, boundaries, and self-regard. She also addresses issues such as body image, chronic illness and pain, codependency, and sexual concerns when they relate to the person’s broader story.

People who feel numb, overwhelmed, or uncertain about what comes next may find her style practical and focused on roots of the problem rather than quick fixes. The work emphasizes noticing inherited patterns and building skills to handle everyday strain while exploring life purpose and belonging.

Approaches you might use online and how they help

Attachment-focused work pays attention to how early relationships shaped expectations and behavior. It helps when patterns from childhood keep repeating in adult relationships or self-judgment. Trauma resiliency skills teach small, practical exercises to manage stress responses and to reduce overwhelm in daily life. These skills can be used for grief, compassion fatigue, and ongoing stress tied to illness or chronic pain. A decolonizing lens brings culture and systems into view, helping people see how prejudice and discrimination have shaped their experiences and choices.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which techniques to try first and adjust the plan based on what helps in weekly sessions.

The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, with fewer logistics around travel and timing. They can also allow for shorter check-ins when needed or sessions that don’t require being on camera. Ask about the available formats and how they might fit your schedule and daily responsibilities.
