Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's own perspective and strengths. In this approach the therapist offers empathy, active listening, and support to help clients explore their values and make changes that feel authentic - useful for life transitions, coping, and building self-understanding.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify thought and behavior patterns that contribute to stress, anxiety, and low mood. It includes practical, skill-based strategies to reframe unhelpful thinking and develop coping tools for everyday challenges.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improved interpersonal effectiveness. These techniques can be particularly helpful for managing intense emotions, mood difficulties, and relationship stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Lorri collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan over time as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging allow licensed professionals to provide consistent care across different settings. This flexibility can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, access support from home, and continue work on goals with regular, convenient sessions.
