Lorenz fosters a safe space with cultural humility, integrates evidence-based practices with psychological theory, and uses more than a decade of experience in behavioral health to empower clients as they venture towards wellbeing. With years of experience fostering behavioral change with children on the autism spectrum, teenagers, young adults, and older adults across a variety of settings including private practice, residential treatment centers, inpatient hospital units, outpatient treatment centers, community mental health units, and secure treatment facilities, Lorenz strives to understand what you bring into and what you want out of treatment, so you can work towards wellbeing and the achievement of your goals.
Our first few meetings will entail us exploring history, goals, behaviors, experiences, and skills all whilst getting comfortable with each other. We will then identify how best to address your concerns within the therapeutic context and how I might assist you in achieving your goals.
I view therapy as a space for growth and I will do what I can to foster that growth and help you meet your needs by integrating psychological theory with my years of experience in behavioral health.
My ideal client is someone who wants to create change for themself and is motivated to do the work. Whether you have a clear sense of what you want or a vague notion of which direction you want to head in, allow me to be your guide in your journey towards wellbeing.
Over the years, I have learned to integrate ACT concepts into my sessions as an orienting framework for identifying goals and motivation.
CBT experiments are certainly a go-to in the way I work with clients as is the notion that thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and influence each other.
I have learned to integrate DBT skills and concepts into my treatment given their applicability for myriad folx.
I am currently training to become a qualified MBCT teacher and integrate mindfulness practices as distress tolerance and coping skills.
I weave together components of the aforementioned modalities when treating clients depending on what they are presenting with and their willingness to explore.
