She also works with people dealing with trauma, sexual assault and abuse, and hospice and end-of-life counseling situations. Her background is broad, so she draws from different approaches to match what a person needs most.

Her main clinical approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, used to identify unhelpful thinking and build new habits. Lori emphasizes collaboration in planning goals and choosing techniques. Clients can expect straightforward talk, goal-focused steps, and practical tools to try between sessions.

How CBT and practical methods fit into online care

Many of Lori's sessions draw on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try small behavioral changes. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, sleep problems, and building coping skills.

She focuses on straightforward, goal-oriented techniques that you can practice between meetings. Lori works with each person to decide which methods to use and adapts them to fit your situation. This is a collaborative process where goals, pacing, and tools are chosen together.

The profile does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce time spent traveling. Talk with the therapist about how to structure meetings to match your goals and day-to-day life.
