How Lori’s Approaches Work Online

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding your goals. In practice this means sessions begin with your priorities and the therapist adapts the pace and focus to what matters most to you, which helps with self-esteem, relationship concerns, and emotional processing.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors link together. Lori uses CBT techniques to break unhelpful patterns, teach coping skills, and set small, measurable steps for issues like anxiety, sleep problems, and mood regulation.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and name emotions and how those emotions shape relationships and reactions. This approach can be useful for intimacy-related issues, communication struggles, and rebuilding trust in close relationships.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Lori will talk with each person about goals, try methods that fit their situation, and adjust the work based on what helps most. She aims to match tools to the client’s needs rather than using a single method for everyone.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let you have face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief check-ins, coaching-style support, or when writing out thoughts helps more than speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or busy family routines.
