Portrait of Loree Shrager, a licensed psychologist in Florida.

Hello.

I’m Loree Shrager, a psychologist in the state of Florida and a member of The Miami Counseling & Resource Center, a leading group practice in Coral Gables. I specialize in the treatment of depression and anxiety but my interests and experience are wide ranging. Much of my education has surrounded the field of mindfulness practices, including meditation, breathing/relaxation, mindful eating and hypnotherapy. For almost 30 years, I have also practiced and taught yoga/meditation, which has informed my approach to psychotherapy and life.

Therapy is about self-exploration along with acceptance and compassion that sets the stage for change. The process is not only about alleviating pain, it is a road to living a fuller, richer, happier life. My emphasis is on listening and understanding first. Reach out, let’s talk. I know that searching for a therapist can be challenging, I offer free phone consultations so that we can take some time to talk and see how I can be of help.

Online Therapy

Therapy through e-mail, phone or video call is so very convenient and has been proven to be as helpful as speaking in person.

Psychotherapy

This confidential collaboration is powerful in part because it allows for the space and time to step back, pause and reflect.
