Online support

Approaches that guide online sessions

Many of Lori's methods focus on practical, evidence-based techniques that teach skills for everyday life. One common approach emphasizes stress and anxiety management through breathing, grounding, and pacing strategies that help reduce panic and overwhelming feelings in the moment. Another approach centers on mood and self-esteem work that identifies unhelpful thoughts and builds small habits to improve mood and self-image over time.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Lori collaborates with each person to match techniques to their goals, needs, and comfort level. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan as progress or new concerns appear so therapy stays useful and relevant.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions are useful when visual cues and a more personal feel matter. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat or text messaging work well for quick reflections, journaling support, and ongoing check-ins between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep continuity when schedules change.
