Background and approach

That relationship becomes a place to notice patterns, make sense of feelings, and try out new ways of relating. Sessions are collaborative and focused on what matters most to the person in front of her. Lenore aims to be thoughtful and attuned in conversation.

She listens for recurring themes and helps people see how past relationships shape current reactions. This often leads to clearer choices and more effective ways of coping with worry and change. When anxiety is part of the picture she helps people identify triggers, manage symptoms, and develop steadying habits.

For relationship worries she helps people name patterns that cause conflict or distance and practice different behaviors in day-to-day life. Her style is warm and curious. She offers steady reflection and gentle challenge so people can better understand themselves and move forward from stuck places.

How psychodynamic work adapts to online therapy

Lenore uses psychodynamic and interpersonal approaches to help people understand recurring feelings and relationship habits. Psychodynamic work focuses on how past relationships shape present reactions and helps people name hidden patterns that influence anxiety and mood. Interpersonal techniques pay attention to the here-and-now of the therapeutic relationship so people can practice new ways of relating and responding.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. She will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences, and adjust over time based on what is helpful. Clients and therapist check in together about progress and make changes as needed.

Online therapy is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for in-depth conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat allows brief check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to maintain continuity during life changes.
