Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care
Clients working with Lori will encounter approaches that emphasize practical change and present-moment awareness. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and patterns and developing concrete skills to shift thinking and behavior - it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, strengths-based method that helps people clarify their own reasons for change and build internal motivation for goals such as recovery, lifestyle shifts, or behavior change. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple, present-focused practices that support emotional regulation and reduce reactivity, which can be helpful for trauma responses, rumination, and chronic stress.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Lori works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting plans as progress unfolds. This partnership helps tailor the work to life circumstances and immediate priorities.
Online sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for scheduling and make it easier to maintain continuity of care amid busy lives or geographic constraints. These options allow clients to access a licensed professional from home or other convenient locations while preserving the conversational and skill-building elements of therapy.
