Lorrie Allen, a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC-S) with over 11 years of experience, specializes in supporting children and their families navigating the complexities of traumatic events. Her approach recognizes that while adults face unique challenges when encountering trauma, children often experience overwhelming stress reactions that can disrupt their lives at home and in school. Lorrie is committed to helping both parents and children understand the roots of these reactions while equipping them with practical techniques to alleviate their intensity. By fostering communication and connection, she strengthens the bond between caregivers and children, enhancing their overall emotional well-being. With training in three evidence-based treatments for childhood trauma, Lorrie aims to manage symptoms and foster healthy attachments with friends and loved ones. Her goal is to empower families by improving existing dynamics and providing the necessary tools to address challenges effectively. Lorrie looks forward to learning about each family she works with and guiding them on their journey to healing and resilience.
