About Lorraine Asti

Lorraine Asti is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York with 8 years of experience providing individual, couples, family and group psychotherapy. As an LCSW she is a trained mental health professional authorized to deliver clinical social work and psychotherapy in New York.

She has worked with a broad range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, substance use issues, trauma and PTSD, anger, personality and mood disorders, and obsessive-compulsive and hoarding behaviors. Lorraine addresses both short-term struggles and longer-standing patterns to help clients move toward greater functioning and well-being.

Her clinical focus spans many areas such as stress, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, LGBT matters, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting and family dynamics, self-esteem and career concerns, bipolar disorder, coping with life changes, compassion fatigue and ADHD. She also brings experience with attachment and abandonment issues, communication and commitment problems, codependency and caregiver stress among other related concerns.

Therapeutic work draws on a range of evidence-informed approaches. She integrates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) and psychodynamic perspectives, and also uses acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), attachment-based, client-centered, mindfulness, solution-focused and trauma-focused techniques as appropriate. Treatment is tailored to each person’s needs, with an emphasis on practical skills, exploration of underlying patterns and collaborative goal-setting. Lorraine aims to offer a compassionate, respectful environment where clients can explore change at their own pace.

Could Remote Therapy Be a Good Fit for You?

Many people consider remote therapy when they want help for everyday stresses or more persistent concerns. For issues like stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges or navigating life transitions, online therapy can be an effective option and often offers outcomes comparable to traditional in-person care.

One of the clearest advantages is flexibility. Clients can choose the format that suits them best - video sessions, phone calls, live chat or in-app messaging - which makes it easier to build consistent therapeutic work into a busy schedule or to continue care when travel or other demands make in-person visits difficult.

Licensed professionals provide care through these remote options, and clients are free to request a different therapist at any time if they feel a different fit would be more helpful. For many people, remote therapy is a practical and accessible way to get skilled therapeutic support while maintaining continuity and focus on personal goals.
