About Lorraine

Lorraine Landau is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with 30 years of clinical experience. She centers her sessions on clear, practical steps that help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, sleeping and eating concerns, and ADHD. Her manner is calm and direct, aimed at making therapy feel approachable and useful from the first visit.

She uses Solution-Focused Therapy to help people identify small changes that lead to better days. Lorraine favors short, goal-oriented conversations that build on what already works in a person's life. Sessions often focus on realistic next steps rather than long explanations of past problems.

Her practice includes attention to long-term health concerns such as chronic pain, illness, or cancer, and to challenges like body image and substance use. She also addresses communication problems, control issues, and the emotional impact of major life events like divorce or blended family transitions. Lorraine works with people facing mood disorders and complex presentations where several problems overlap.

Lorraine offers services in English, Spanish, French, and Hebrew. She works with international clients and provides sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Costs vary with location and therapist availability, and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

To begin, a person selects the Start Therapy button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules sessions based on therapist availability. Lorraine aims to make the first steps straightforward and practical.

Solution-Focused Care Online and Practical Support

Solution-Focused Therapy focuses on practical changes and clear goals. It helps people identify small, doable steps that move life in a better direction. This approach is useful for issues like anxiety, stress, sleeping and eating concerns, and managing daily routines when ADHD or mood symptoms interfere.

In sessions Lorraine will work collaboratively to find the best approach for each person. She listens to current needs and preferences, tests what helps, and adjusts goals over time. Deciding how to work together is a shared process rather than a one-size-fits-all prescription.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits a break at work. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick updates, daily tracking, or when a written check-in feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to maintain continuity of care across locations.
