Loraine Kern

Loraine Kern is a compassionate and skilled therapist who understands that finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming, especially during difficult times. With over 10 years of experience as a Trauma-Informed therapist, she employs a 'bottom-up' model that seamlessly integrates mind, body, and spirit. Loraine's therapeutic strategies focus on enhancing capacity and resilience, drawing from attachment-based theories and nervous system/polyvagal approaches. Rather than solely concentrating on reclaiming memories or altering thoughts and beliefs, her therapy delves into the sensations that underpin feelings and identifies habitual behavior patterns in response to these emotions. Loraine believes that 2021 can be the year for individuals to embrace a journey where they feel welcomed, seen, heard, valued, loved, and supported. She emphasizes that trauma is not an individual's fault and that the kindest, most loving act one can undertake is the pursuit of healing. Within everyone lies a heroic, lovable, uniquely creative individual, often hindered by life's challenges. Through collaboration, Loraine aims to help clients remove the barriers inhibiting their natural healing process. She envisions a future where clients experience reduced anxiety, increased self-esteem, healthier relationships, emotional balance, stress relief, and healing from past emotional wounds. They CAN thrive!
