These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Catherine Lorino. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.

Catherine Lorino has really helped my husband and I to come out of some of our darkest times together. We’ve come back to her on and off over the years and continue to use tools she’s taught us everyday to grow towards one another in love and life.

Cathy is so kind and easy to talk to. She has broke the barrier with my husband who does not like to talk to counselors. We have a long road ahead of us but I’m grateful for her help.

Written on Dec 30, 2017 after therapy with Catherine for 5 months on issues concerning relationship

Catherine has been a dream to work with! She has helped my spouse and I get to the root of and give a solid foundation to fix issues that had come up in our relationship in a week, where as it would have taken months had we chose to go somewhere in office. Not to mention she is quick to respond and never makes you feel like she is taking sides. She is able to remain very neutral even when you may not. I’d gladly recommend her to anyone!

Cathy is engaging and really on-point with understanding my concerns and my issues. However, unlike other counselors, she offers genuinely effective thoughts and processes to overcome my issues. I'm really happy to stumble upon Regain.

Work with me!
