How her approaches are used in online sessions
Lori commonly integrates client-centered work with cognitive behavioral therapy and emotionally-focused methods. Client-centered work focuses on listening and helping clients name what matters to them, which supports clearer goals and next steps. Cognitive behavioral therapy involves identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety or depression. Emotionally-focused methods address patterns in relationships and attachment, useful when communication or closeness is the main issue.Finding the right approach is collaborative. Lori discusses goals and preferences early on and adjusts techniques as needed. Together the client and therapist decide which methods to emphasize based on what is happening in the clients life and what feels most useful in weekly sessions.
Confirm the specific session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. They also let clients practice communication skills and mindfulness exercises in everyday settings, which can help transfer new habits into daily life.
