Evidence-based techniques and online access
Lori uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach she uses teaches skills for managing strong emotions and reducing stress through structured practice and step-by-step coping strategies. This approach can help when feelings like anger or anxiety become overwhelming and interfere with daily life.Another frequent focus is improving communication and relationship patterns. Sessions work on identifying unhelpful interaction cycles, trying new ways to speak and listen, and rehearsing healthier responses. This helps with disputes, closeness issues, and social anxiety or phobia symptoms.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Lori collaborates with each person to pick strategies that match their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts plans as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions are good for face-to-face conversation and exercises, phone calls work when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or chat can fit brief check-ins or ongoing support. These options help make scheduling easier and let people use the format that fits their routine.
