About Lorri
Lorri Romesberg is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) practicing in Massachusetts with 10 years of experience. She lists stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns among her core areas. Her work also includes parenting, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, and LGBT-related issues.
She trained at Boston University for her master's in social work and holds a bachelor of social work from Cornell University. Early in her career she worked in emergency services for children and with families impacted by abuse, neglect, and mental health struggles. That experience shaped how she approaches complex family and adoption-related issues.
Romberg uses a person-centered style that keeps the client's goals central. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and on dialectical behavior strategies for managing strong emotions. She also brings psychodynamic ideas into conversations about patterns that repeat across relationships.
In sessions she focuses on practical steps people can try between meetings. That can include learning new communication skills, building routines for better sleep, or practicing strategies to reduce social avoidance. She talks through coping skills for anger, mood changes, ADHD-related challenges, and relationship strain.
She works with people facing life changes such as divorce, adoption, midlife shifts, or career transitions. People who struggle with isolation, shame, gender questions, or intimacy concerns can expect collaborative problem solving and concrete tools to try between visits.
How therapeutic approaches translate online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and working from the client’s own goals. In practice this means the therapist follows what matters most to the person and adjusts pacing and focus to match their needs.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is often used for anxiety, sleep problems, low mood, and managing worry with concrete exercises and homework between sessions.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes skills for managing strong emotions and improving communication. It can be useful when anger, intense mood swings, or relationship conflicts make daily life harder.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose techniques that fit their goals, preferences, and the problems they bring. That choice can change over time as progress is made.
Confirm the therapist's current session formats before booking. When offered, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy routine, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Different formats can also help when quieter surroundings, less bandwidth, or being off camera matter for comfort and practicality.
