Therapeutic Approaches Adapted for Online Care
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening and respect for each person's perspective. In this approach the therapist creates space for clients to explore their priorities and feelings, which can help with issues like relationship struggles, parenting challenges and navigating life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and building practical skills to change them - it is often used for anxiety, depression and stress-related concerns and translates well to structured sessions online. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and breathing or attention practices to reduce reactivity and improve coping; it can support emotional regulation and help with stress, grief and ongoing worry.
Finding the best approach is part of the therapeutic process and Lori works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences and needs. She adapts techniques as progress unfolds and involves clients in planning treatment steps.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video call or phone and options for live chat or text-based messaging allow clients to access care from home or work and to integrate support into busy schedules. These formats make it easier for people with complex family responsibilities, work demands or mobility limits to connect with licensed professionals and continue consistent therapeutic work.
