About Lora
Lora Newman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with 17 years of experience. She combines counseling and business leadership coaching to address stress, money concerns, time management, communication, and related life shifts for adults.
Newman uses a direct, interactive style in sessions. She offers performance EMDR and Equine Assisted Learning in her work with business owners and leaders to help people move past blocks that limit results. Sessions mix conversation, practical problem solving, and experiential techniques when appropriate.
Many people come to her for help with anxiety, low self-esteem, workplace strain, and planning next career steps. She also addresses relationship concerns, family dynamics, control issues, and questions about life purpose. Family of origin issues are a named focus when earlier family patterns still influence present choices.
In a typical appointment she listens to current problems, helps clarify goals, and works with clients to try different strategies. That can mean learning mindfulness skills, using EMDR for processing targeted experiences, or applying client-centered conversations to improve decision making.
Newman also blends coaching tools aimed at performance and leadership. This often looks like setting measurable steps, practicing communication skills, and tracking progress between sessions. She invites people who want practical, action-oriented support alongside therapeutic reflection.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what a person says to help them find their own solutions. It’s useful for improving decision making, confidence, and coping with everyday stressors.EMDR, when used for performance and targeted processing, involves guided attention to help a person work through specific blocks or disturbing memories. In this context it is applied to reduce barriers that affect work, confidence, or reactions to stressful situations.
Finding the right approach is worked out together. The therapist will review your goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Then she will suggest which methods to try and adjust the plan as you go, combining counseling and coaching tools when that fits your needs.
Confirm session formats before you book since the profile does not list specific online delivery methods. Many people find online sessions helpful because they save travel time, fit into a workday more easily, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Others prefer longer blocks for experiential work; these practical choices are discussed during scheduling so sessions can better fit everyday life.
