Background and approach
Sessions are meant to feel like a steady, problem-solving process rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Her work draws on several evidence-informed methods, including acceptance and commitment approaches, cognitive behavioral techniques, and mindfulness practices. These tools are used to build new coping habits, reduce unhelpful thinking patterns, and strengthen day-to-day routines.
Lori also uses solution-focused strategies to create quick, achievable steps when people feel stuck. That approach helps people identify strengths and apply them to immediate problems. It can be helpful for improving motivation, managing impulsivity, and handling life transitions.
Clients can expect a respectful and empathetic atmosphere where their goals guide the process. Lori describes therapy as a collaborative effort - she supports and empowers people as they work toward clearer priorities and more manageable routines.
How Lori’s approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It focuses on learning what matters and building small habits that move someone toward those values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going and teaches concrete skills to change them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and panic attacks.Lori approaches treatment as a collaborative process. She will work with each person to identify goals and try different methods until something fits. Together they decide which combination of ACT, CBT, mindfulness, or solution-focused tools best match the person's needs and daily life.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and real-time skill practice. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging can be useful for brief check-ins, sharing progress, or working through quick exercises between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to keep steady momentum on goals.
