About Lora Hack

Lora Hack, LCSW (licensed clinical social worker), provides adult individual therapy with a focus on the effects of trauma, including rape and military sexual trauma, as well as life stress and major transitions. She works to help people reconnect with their authentic selves, strengthen inner resilience, and increase self-awareness so they can reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression and improve important relationships.

Her practice treats therapy as a collaborative process in which individuals are invited to be fully seen and deeply heard while developing greater empathy and understanding of themselves. She guides clients through careful exploration of past wounds, current stressors, and recurring themes that contribute to unresolved patterns, offering practical ways to shift those patterns over time.

Using a mix of clinical modalities tailored to each person, Lora emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental atmosphere where new ideas can be learned and practiced at a pace that feels right. Her approach is grounded in compassion and acceptance, and she considers it an honor to walk alongside clients as they build self-worth, strengthen relationship stability, and cultivate trust.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care



Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and learn to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while taking meaningful action. It is useful for addressing anxiety, depression, and patterns that interfere with living a values-driven life. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and unconditional positive regard, giving individuals space to explore identity, self-worth, and relationship concerns in a supportive setting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and learning practical strategies to change them, often helping with anxiety, mood challenges, and repetitive patterns of thinking.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work. Lora will collaborate with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting techniques from these approaches as the process unfolds.

Online therapy using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for busy schedules and for people who live far from traditional offices. These options make it easier to maintain regular contact with licensed professionals and therapists, try different formats to see what feels most helpful, and continue skill-building between sessions.
