About Lanorma

Lanorma Burrell is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 19 years of experience practicing in Nevada. She focuses on common mental health concerns such as depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction, and anger. Lanorma also addresses relationship and parenting stresses and helps people facing major life changes.

Her work begins with listening. She helps people sort through what feels overwhelming and pinpoints small, practical steps they can try. Sessions often include learning new ways to handle intense feelings, improving communication, and reducing impulses that lead to regret.

Lanorma draws on several methods that fit how a person likes to work. She uses client-centered techniques to follow the person’s lead. She applies cognitive behavioral tools to change unhelpful thoughts and DBT skills to regulate strong emotions and reduce impulsivity.

She pays attention to cultural background and how it shapes stress, identity, and relationships. That means looking at how family history, adoption or foster care, and attachment patterns affect current behavior. She also helps people navigating grief, career shifts, and questions about life purpose.

Practical coaching and skill-building are part of sessions when useful. This may include communication practice, boundary-setting, and strategies for managing anger and jealousy. Lanorma works with mood disorders, ADHD-related struggles, and first responder issues as part of broader care.

People who prefer clear steps and hands-on tools often find her style helpful. To start, she asks about current problems, what has helped before, and what the client wants to try next.

How Lanorma uses therapy approaches online

Lanorma uses cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to help people change unhelpful thinking and manage intense emotions. CBT focuses on identifying and testing thoughts that lead to stress and anger. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and behavior changes. DBT offers concrete emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills to reduce impulsivity and handle strong feelings without making things worse. She also uses client-centered methods that prioritize the person's perspective. That means deciding together which approach or combination will fit current goals and preferences. The therapist and client review what helps, adjust strategies, and try practical skills in session. Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as options are not listed here. Online work can make regular sessions easier to fit into a busy week and can allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also supports practicing skills between sessions and using mindfulness or communication exercises in real-life moments.
