About Lorena
Lorena Silva is a licensed clinical social worker with three years of experience helping adults facing anxiety, depression, and big life changes. She practices in California and offers sessions in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. Lorena focuses on making therapy straightforward and practical for people under stress.
Her style is warm and collaborative. She aims to create a space where people feel understood and can take an active role in their progress.
Background and approach
Sessions tend to focus on clear tools and small steps that fit daily life. Lorena works with common concerns like panic, mood struggles, and low self-esteem. She also supports people dealing with trauma, family problems, codependency, and issues related to divorce or separation.
Other areas she addresses include substance concerns, domestic violence, immigration issues, and feelings of isolation. In session she uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to each person. Conversations might include learning coping skills, practicing communication strategies, and examining patterns that keep problems repeating.
The goal is to leave each visit with something useful to try between sessions. Therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. People start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability.

Online support
How evidence-based methods work online
Therapy sessions use straightforward, evidence-based techniques that aim to reduce symptoms and build skills. One common approach focuses on teaching coping skills and stress management - clients learn concrete tools to ease anxiety, handle panic, and manage mood swings. Another approach looks at communication patterns and relationship dynamics - it helps people practice clearer ways to set boundaries and solve conflicts without escalating tension.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they adjust methods over time so the work fits the client’s needs and pace.
Online therapy here is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging work well for shorter updates, ongoing support between sessions, and people who prefer writing. These options give flexibility to schedule care around work, family, and travel while keeping therapy consistent.
