How Lori’s approaches translate to remote work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to a person. In practice this means the therapist follows the person’s lead, reflects concerns back, and helps clarify goals. It is useful for general distress, identity questions, grief and relationship-related stress.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test different behaviors. It is practical for anxiety, depression, anger, social anxiety and many stress-related problems because it breaks issues into small, testable steps.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity to strong emotions. It is often used alongside other methods when managing anxiety, trauma-related symptoms or overwhelming feelings.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, try approaches, and adjust based on what helps most. This is a collaborative process that centers the client’s preferences and practical needs.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving and daily life. They can also support shorter check-ins or sessions that do not require video, which may help when bandwidth is limited or a quieter setup is needed.
