About Loren

Loren Edwards is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia with three years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people navigate relationship and intimacy concerns, LGBT-related issues, stress, anxiety, and shifts in self-esteem and motivation. Loren emphasizes respect and compassion in sessions and encourages people who feel nervous about starting therapy.

Her approach is collaborative and tailored. She listens to what matters most, then shapes conversations and a plan to match each person's needs. Sessions are conversational and practical, often centering on everyday thoughts and habits that affect mood and relationships.

Loren uses techniques drawn from Client-Centered Therapy to create a warm, accepting atmosphere where people can reflect and set goals. She also integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thought patterns and habits that keep problems going, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for managing strong emotions when needed.

People come for a range of concerns including grief, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, sleep problems, anger, mood disorders like bipolar, and compassion fatigue. She also addresses attachment and abandonment wounds, body image, codependency, and blended family stress.

Loren works with sensitivity to multicultural and gender-related issues, including gender dysphoria. Sessions aim to help people notice small changes they can carry into daily life. To begin, she asks clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on availability.

How Loren’s approaches fit into online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating an accepting space where the person sets the pace and topics. It helps people gain clarity, build confidence, and talk through relationship and identity concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and everyday habits shape feelings and actions. It is practical for addressing anxiety, low self-esteem, sleep issues, and mood patterns by learning to notice and adjust unhelpful thinking.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. These skills can be useful for people dealing with anger, impulsivity, mood instability, and relationship stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Loren will collaborate with each person to decide which methods match their goals, comfort level, and day-to-day needs. That choice can change over time as progress is made.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, cut down travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Talk with Loren about how to structure sessions so they fit your routine and goals.
