About Lorena

Lorena Ginn is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Kentucky with seven years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and addiction and also addresses issues like guilt and shame and problems with self-esteem.

She focuses on practical, talk-and-skill sessions that help people notice patterns that keep them stuck. Lorena uses clear strategies to manage panic, mood swings, and obsessive or compulsive behaviors. She also helps clients who struggle with isolation, life purpose, or stopping smoking and vaping.

Her approach blends client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. For people with trauma, she incorporates EMDR methods to process painful memories alongside motivational interviewing to support behavior change. Sessions aim to build emotional regulation and more steady daily routines.

Lorena frames work around concrete steps rather than abstract promises. Clients can expect active collaboration about goals, and specific tools to try between sessions. She pays attention to how shame and guilt show up in relationships and daily choices.

Her practice sits in Kentucky and sessions are conducted in English. The intake process uses a short matching questionnaire and scheduling system so people can pick a first appointment and begin practical work on the issues they brought in.

How her approaches are used in online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. It helps people clarify goals and feel understood so they can make changes that matter in daily life.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with concrete exercises. It is often used for anxiety, panic, depression, and problems like obsessive thinking by teaching practical skills to test and change beliefs.

EMDR offers a structured way to work with difficult memories and trauma symptoms by pairing memory processing with guided attention. When trauma is a key issue, it can be a tool used alongside other skill-building work.

Finding the best approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. That decision is collaborative and may change over time as progress is reviewed.

If you want online sessions, confirm the available formats before booking since the biography did not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a break, or avoid being on camera when that feels difficult. Many people find those practical benefits helpful when balancing therapy with work and family life.
