Tami Lorne , LMHC

Tami Lorne is a Florida-licensed clinician with 12 years of professional experience who brings practical support and steady guidance to people facing a wide range of life challenges. She holds the LMHC credential - Licensed Mental Health Counselor - and has worked across facility and private practice settings, developing broad experience with stress, anxiety, addictions, LGBTQ-related concerns, relationships, trauma, family issues, grief, parenting, and related areas.

Her background includes roughly three years at an addiction treatment facility, where she conducted evaluations in the jail to help people move from incarceration into appropriate treatment. She also volunteers counseling for combat veterans through the Give An Hour program. Those roles contributed to a perspective that values getting people the care they need rather than defaulting to punitive responses for substance use issues.

Tami describes an eclectic, client-focused style that adapts evidence-based techniques to each person. She emphasizes a holistic view that sees people beyond any single diagnosis, and she works to build an open, honest, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored. Her aim is to provide tools and support that increase clients' confidence so they can make desired changes and eventually move forward without ongoing counseling. She is accepting new clients in Florida and provides services in English.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Remote Care

Tami draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to each person rather than relying on a single model. She uses skills-based interventions that teach practical coping strategies and emotion-management tools to reduce stress and anxiety and improve day-to-day functioning. She also offers addiction-informed support shaped by her experience in treatment settings and jail evaluations, helping people identify appropriate next steps and access care when substance use is a concern. In work with trauma and abuse, she employs trauma-informed principles that prioritize safety, pacing, and respect for each person’s readiness to process difficult experiences.

Finding the right approach is part of the collaborative process. Tami works with clients to identify goals, preferences, and strengths, and then selects or blends techniques that fit those needs. This shared decision-making helps ensure the plan aligns with what the client wants to achieve.

Online therapy provides flexible ways to engage in that process. Video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging allow clients to meet with licensed professionals around their schedules, reduce travel time, and maintain continuity of care during life transitions. These options make it easier to access regular support while fitting therapy into busy lives.
