Lorilee holds a profound respect for the inherent healing capabilities of the human mind and body, especially in the aftermath of trauma.

Her keen interest in the mind-body connection equips her to help clients understand how past experiences and trauma can leave lasting imprints on their nervous systems and energetic bodies.

Lorilee sees trauma as a potential underpinning for a range of behavioral patterns such as anxiety, depression, anger, numbness, need for control, perfectionism, self-criticism, difficulty in setting boundaries, and struggles in self-expression. She assists clients in navigating these patterns that might have been useful in the past but may now obstruct their path to a fulfilling life.

Moreover, Lorilee possesses specialized training in counseling and energy healing for reproductive mental health. She provides support for individuals dealing with infertility, pregnancy loss, birth trauma, postpartum anxiety and depression.
