About Lorena
Lorena Flores is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 20 years of experience in California. She focuses on practical help for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, anger, trauma, or depression. Lorena speaks English and Spanish and aims to make the first steps toward change feel manageable.
She listens with respect and compassion and adapts conversations to each person’s needs. Sessions focus on identifying what is most distressing now and finding clear, workable ways to reduce it.
Background and approach
That might mean learning new coping skills, changing unhelpful patterns, or practicing better communication. Lorena has long experience helping people navigate life changes. She supports those dealing with loss, separation, workplace pressure, and caregiving stress.
She also addresses concerns tied to body image, social anxiety, and mood struggles. The approach is collaborative. Lorena and the person work together to set goals and try small steps between sessions.
Progress is tracked in straightforward ways so it’s clear what’s helping and what to adjust. Therapy is offered through a mix of video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. International clients may work with her as well.
To begin, a short matching questionnaire guides the first appointment. People who want someone steady and practical for emotional struggles often connect with her style. She aims to support growth while keeping the process realistic and focused on daily life.

Evidence-based approaches and online care
Many therapists draw on practical, evidence-based techniques to help people manage strong emotions and stressful situations. One common approach is skills-based work that teaches concrete ways to cope with intense feelings, such as breathing exercises, grounding methods, and step-by-step behavior changes to reduce angry reactions and anxiety. These tools aim to give quick strategies to use in real moments of distress.A second approach focuses on processing past hurt and trauma in a paced, supportive way. This can involve talking through memories, identifying patterns that keep pain alive, and practicing new ways of responding so old hurts stop driving daily reactions. That work often helps with depression, trauma, and long-standing anger linked to past events.
Finding the right blend of techniques is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, try approaches that fit their needs, and adjust the plan as progress is seen. Clients and the therapist decide together what feels most useful and practical.
Online sessions offer flexibility for different schedules and needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for quick check-ins, and text messaging supports short ongoing reflection or support between sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and maintain momentum between appointments.
