Lorie Boyd, LMHC, is a licensed clinician based in New York with 26 years of experience working with people facing depression, anxiety, trauma, and complex interpersonal concerns. Her practice addresses a broad range of issues including family conflict, addiction, grief, and identity-related struggles. She also attends to multicultural concerns, prejudice and discrimination, and challenges tied to social anxiety and post-traumatic stress.
Her work draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to meet each person where they are and to develop practical skills alongside reflective exploration. She emphasizes communication, self-love, and healthier relational patterns while acknowledging the impact of systemic and cultural factors on emotional wellbeing.
Clients seeking support for parenting questions, intimacy-related issues, codependency, or career stress will find an approach that balances empathy with structured strategies. Lorie aims to walk alongside people through periods of transition and healing, offering steady professional guidance as they explore new ways of coping and relating to themselves and others.
Lorie Boyd uses a combination of Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in remote sessions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on attentive listening, validation, and working from the client’s own goals and priorities. This approach supports people who want an empathetic space to explore identity, family of origin issues, or feelings tied to discrimination and cultural stressors.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy offers structured tools to identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors that maintain anxiety, depression, or avoidance. When paired with a client-centered stance, CBT techniques are introduced collaboratively so they fit the client’s values and daily life. This blend can suit individuals who want both reflective exploration and concrete coping strategies.
Remote care is available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options allow Lorie to tailor contact and homework support to the preferences and practical needs of each person while maintaining a consistent therapeutic relationship.
