About Lanorma
Lanorma Burrell is a licensed counselor with nearly 19 years of clinical experience. She holds a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor credential and an LPC and practices in Nevada.

She uses clear, practical techniques that fit each person's needs. Sessions often focus on improving communication, building coping skills, and restoring a sense of control after hard events.
Background and approach
Lanorma emphasizes compassionate care and respects the role of cultural background in each person's story. Her work includes attention to relationship struggles, parenting stress, grief, and career concerns. She also helps with challenges such as ADHD-related difficulties, compassion fatigue, and mood disorders.
When relevant she brings in strategies for attachment, adoption and foster care issues, and managing strong emotions like anger and jealousy. Lanorma draws on well-established approaches such as client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral tools, and mindfulness practices. These give people concrete steps to change unhelpful patterns and reduce distress.
She also uses skills from dialectical behavior therapy and relationship-focused work when those fit the goals. People who prefer a straightforward, collaborative style tend to do well. Lanorma aims to create a calm setting where someone can talk through problems, try new ways of coping, and track small improvements over time.
Therapeutic Approaches for Online Work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the person's lead. The therapist helps people feel heard and supports them in finding their own solutions, which is useful for stress, grief, and self-esteem struggles.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood. It uses practical exercises and skill building to reduce anxiety, depression, and unhelpful patterns.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. These tools help when emotions feel overwhelming or when relationships are difficult.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and can change as needs evolve.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how people connect. Video calls let you use visual cues and more in-depth conversation. Phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or when being off-camera helps. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for quick check-ins, shorter conversations, and ongoing support between longer sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to use approaches like CBT and mindfulness in practical ways.
