About Tami
Tami Lorne is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, practicing in Florida with 12 years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, LGBTQ issues, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, grief, and parenting concerns among other challenges.
She draws on work from both facility settings and private practice. Tami spent about three years at an addiction treatment facility doing evaluations and coordinating treatment placements from the jail system. She also provides volunteer counseling for combat veterans through Give An Hour.
Tami uses an eclectic, evidence-based approach rather than a single method. She meets each person where they are and selects techniques to fit the person and their situation. That may mean combining practical coping strategies, relapse prevention ideas, communication skills, and processing of difficult events.
Sessions aim to be direct and practical. Tami focuses on helping people build skills they can use between sessions. She works on concrete goals such as reducing panic in social situations, managing cravings, improving communication, or coping with loss.
Her style favors straightforward conversation and collaborative planning. After an initial meeting she identifies what approaches are likely to help and explains the plan. The goal is to give people tools and confidence to move forward without long-term dependence on counseling.
Approaches used and how online sessions fit into care
Many of the techniques Tami uses involve practical, skills-based methods. One common approach teaches breathing, grounding, and exposure steps that help reduce panic and avoidance in social situations. These techniques break larger fears into small, manageable steps to practice over time.She also draws on strategies used for addiction support, such as relapse prevention and coping plans. Those methods focus on identifying triggers, building alternatives to substance use, and creating immediate steps to manage cravings. For grief and trauma work she may use structured processing techniques that help people talk through painful memories at a pace they can handle.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Tami will talk with each person in the first session, explain possible methods, and work together to pick the best fit based on goals and preferences. Plans can be adjusted as progress is made.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, therapy delivered remotely can make it easier to fit appointments into a weekday, allow shorter check-ins by phone if needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals often use those practical benefits to help people maintain consistency with sessions and practice skills between meetings.
