Lorraine Granger, LMFT

Lorraine Granger is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 18 years of clinical experience who focuses on transforming harsh self-criticism into a kinder internal voice. She works with people struggling with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, low self esteem, and the challenges that come with life transitions. Over nearly two decades in practice she has seen how a critical inner narrative often keeps people stuck and exhausted, and she centers her work on helping clients cultivate what she calls the Kind Coach within themselves.

Her approach blends evidence-based methods including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, somatic techniques, and trauma release protocols. In session she guides clients to become still and attentive to the information their bodies and minds provide, using that awareness to name and release long-held habits such as distraction, overthinking, excessive worry, and people pleasing. The goal is to shift old patterns so clients can access more calm, clarity, and confidence.

She emphasizes a respectful, paced process that honors each person’s inner world and readiness to explore sensitive material. By changing self-critical stories to kinder, more supportive ones, Lorraine aims to help clients experience meaningful shifts across mood, trauma responses, relationships, body image, and life direction. Her work is oriented toward helping people rediscover a safe and comfortable home inside their own heart, body, and mind.
