About Lori
Lori Wenglikowski is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) practicing in Michigan with ten years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, mood disorders, addiction concerns, and related life challenges. Lori works primarily with adults and with people who identify as LGBT. Sessions use practical skills and evidence-based methods.
Lori helps people identify patterns that keep them stuck and teaches concrete coping strategies. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. When appropriate, she integrates Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing to work on traumatic memories.
In sessions she prioritizes clear goals and step-by-step plans that clients can try between meetings. She focuses on problem solving, sleep and routine improvements, mood management, and handling anger and grief. Work on career concerns and attention-related struggles is practical and action oriented.
Lori brings trauma-aware methods to help people process painful events while keeping sessions paced to what the person can manage. She supports people through major life changes and addiction-related challenges with structured skills work and relapse prevention planning. Her approach balances symptom reduction with building daily routines.
Her background in social work guides a focus on resources and real-world supports. People who choose her can expect straightforward collaboration, regular skill practice, and check-ins on progress toward concrete goals.

How her approaches fit into online sessions
CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Online CBT sessions often include skill practice, short exercises, and homework that help manage anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and work-related stress.DBT emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. In an online setting DBT skills can be taught and practiced through stepwise coaching and brief between-session exercises to handle intense emotions and reduce impulsive behaviors.
EMDR works with the way the brain stores upsetting memories and can reduce the distress tied to trauma. When used online, EMDR involves guided processing and pacing that follows the client's tolerance for working with traumatic material.
Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will help figure out which methods fit a person's goals, needs, and preferences and will adjust the plan over time based on what helps.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example shorter check-ins during the day, not needing travel time, or avoiding high-bandwidth video when that is difficult. These practical benefits can help people keep therapy consistent while working toward their goals.
