About Lorraine

Lorraine Landau is a licensed psychotherapist in New York with 30 years of clinical experience using solution-focused methods to help people move toward practical, attainable change.

Background and approach

She holds LPC and LMHC credentials and draws on a career-long emphasis on helping clients manage stress, anxiety, depression, sleep and eating concerns, and challenges related to attention and focus such as ADHD. Her work blends a pragmatic orientation with empathic exploration, supporting people facing chronic health issues, complex mood patterns, substance-related problems, and life transitions.

Lorraine has developed skills working with concerns that include chronic pain and illness, body image and eating issues, communication and control difficulties, and adjustment after separation or loss. Sessions emphasize collaboration and brief goal-setting to produce measurable steps forward, while also attending to deeper patterns when useful.

Lorraine communicates in English, Spanish, French, and Hebrew and accepts international clients, offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to suit different preferences and schedules.

Solution-Focused Care Online and Practical Support

Solution-Focused Therapy is central to Lorraine's practice and focuses on identifying clear goals and small, actionable steps that move a person toward improvement; it is useful for tackling stress, anxiety, sleep and eating concerns, and attention-related difficulties by building on existing strengths.

Alongside that pragmatic approach, her work emphasizes collaborative planning where the therapist and client evaluate what strategies are working and adjust goals together. This process helps tailor the approach to each person's priorities and preferences rather than relying on a single pathway to change.

Online formats make that collaborative work easier to fit into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for deeper conversation, phone sessions offer a simpler connection when video is impractical, and live chat or text-based messaging supports ongoing check-ins and short, focused exchanges between sessions. These options provide flexibility and accessibility so clients can pursue therapy in ways that match their schedules and communication styles.
