Tami Lorne, LMHC

Tami Lorne is a licensed mental health counselor in Florida with 12 years of professional experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, relationship struggles, grief, and trauma. She also supports those dealing with parenting strain, compassion fatigue, self-esteem struggles, and major life changes.

Her clinical background includes work in both facility settings and private practice. She spent about three years at an addiction facility, including conducting jail evaluations to help people move into treatment. She also provides volunteer counseling for combat veterans through a program called Give An Hour.

Tami describes her approach as flexible rather than limited to a single theory. She assesses each person at the first meeting and tailors methods to match their situation. She aims to treat the whole person rather than focusing only on a diagnosis or label.

In sessions she focuses on clear, practical tools clients can use between meetings. She works to create an open, honest environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without judgment. The goal is to help people gain confidence and make changes that matter to them.

Tami emphasizes collaboration and gradual progress. She supports people as they build skills to cope with addiction, relationship issues, caregiver stress, blended family challenges, and other concerns. Her work is aimed at helping clients move forward and rely less on counseling over time.

Approaches that guide online work and care

Many clients benefit from practical, evidence-based techniques that focus on skills and coping. One common approach emphasizes building coping skills for anxiety, stress, and cravings by teaching breathing, grounding, and step-by-step behavior changes. These tools help people manage symptoms day to day and regain a sense of control.

Another approach focuses on trauma-informed strategies that help people process difficult experiences at a manageable pace. This involves pacing, stabilization skills, and attention to triggers so people can work through memories without becoming overwhelmed. It can be useful for trauma, abuse, and grief-related concerns.

Tami sees choosing a therapeutic approach as a collaborative process. She meets each person where they are, discusses goals, and adapts methods to fit needs and preferences. Together the therapist and client decide which techniques to try and adjust them over time based on progress.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the exact session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, shorten travel time, allow shorter check-in meetings when that helps, and reduce the need to arrange childcare or time off work. Licensed professionals can often offer flexible scheduling to match daily life while focusing on the same practical skills used in face-to-face care.
