Lorene Floyd, LPC - Therapist in Alabama

About Lorene

Lorene Floyd is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 36 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, and relationship concerns. Parents seeking practical guidance about family matters will find straightforward, steady support.

She sees clients in Alabama and conducts sessions in English. Her work emphasizes listening first. She creates space for people to tell their story without pressure.

From there she and the client pick skills and steps that fit the situation.

Background and approach

Sessions move at a pace set by the client and focus on concrete next actions. Lorene draws on client-centered methods to keep the work grounded in each person’s values. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful patterns and try new ways of thinking and acting.

Solution-focused strategies help set short-term goals and track small wins. She also incorporates trauma-focused approaches when people need to process painful experiences. That work aims to reduce the hold past events have on daily life and to build practical coping tools.

Across approaches she prioritizes clear communication and real-world problem solving. Her background includes many years supporting concerns often tied to life transitions and relationships. Areas commonly addressed include intimacy issues, anger, self-esteem, codependency, communication problems, and aging-related matters.

Those looking for step-by-step guidance and calm, experience-based direction may find her style helpful.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Client-centered therapy centers the person's experience and priorities, emphasizing listening and working at a comfortable pace. This approach helps build trust and keeps sessions practical by focusing on what matters most to the client.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, helps identify thought patterns and behaviors that cause trouble. In online sessions this often translates into setting small experiments and homework between meetings to try new ways of thinking and acting.

Solution-focused therapy narrows attention to short-term, achievable goals and clear next steps. Online formats work well for this approach because progress can be tracked quickly and adjustments made from week to week.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to concerns, discuss options, and together choose methods that fit the client's goals and comfort level. Plans are adjusted as work progresses to keep the focus on helpful change.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy family schedules and to connect when in-person visits are difficult. Using different formats, clients can continue work between meetings and pick the method that feels most practical for them.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Solution-Focused Therapy

Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
