My name is Lori Torre, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. Since graduating from Stony Brook University in 2009 I have had a variety of experiences working in the mental health field including mental health housing, a community clinical setting and private practice. I have experience working with clients who experience struggles related to depression, anxiety, family dynamics, relationships and trauma. I truly love what I do, and I am passionate about helping others.
I’ve been helping people for over 20 years as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and I’m so proud of you for taking this important step toward caring for yourself. It’s not always easy, and it shows strength and courage.
Throughout my career, I’ve worked with individuals of all ages and backgrounds, addressing a wide range of challenges. My experience includes school settings, college multicultural affairs, outpatient drug and alcohol treatment, and mental health counseling.
I also spent nine years in a hospital setting, working in psychiatric emergency services and on adolescent and adult inpatient units. This gave me extensive experience in crisis intervention and in supporting people through both mild and severe mental health concerns. Today, I continue to work in outpatient mental health, helping clients navigate life’s challenges and build resilience.
My goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where you feel heard and understood. Together, we’ll work toward the changes you want to see in your life. I look forward to working with you.
I have had the privilege of working as an individual and group therapist in numerous therapeutic settings. These experiences have allowed me to utilize various treatment modalities in order to empower the individuals I work with.
I recognize that everyone’s experiences are unique and personal. My approach is tailored to fit an individual's specific needs. It is my goal to provide you with a safe and supportive environment to help you identify, explore, and address what thoughts and behaviors may be interfering with living a balanced life. Through our work together, you will learn helpful tools and insights that will provide a sense of well-being that can help you achieve your personal goals in treatment.
I aim to empower you, provide you with useful strategies for success, and ultimately assist you in gaining a deeper understanding of yourself and what may be holding you back from reaching your individualized happiness. As we work together, you'll never have to feel alone on your journey to self-improvement and personal insight.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Smithtown
Searching for therapists in Smithtown starts with finding someone whose background matches what you want support with. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and experience with concerns like yours. A therapist’s bio can also show how they structure sessions, communicate, and help you understand what care with them may look like.
In a smaller community like Smithtown, the right local match may depend on both fit and availability. In-person sessions may work well if you prefer an office near Smithtown, Hauppauge, or Nissequogue, while virtual sessions can expand your options across New York. Beyond specialty, consider whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your schedule, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare style, focus areas, and practical details in one place.
Therapy in Smithtown can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and understand your expected out-of-pocket expense before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists who take insurance, review detailed bios, see estimated costs after entering your plan details, and book directly when you’re ready.
