Online support
Emotion-focused and practical therapy online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people see and name the feelings that drive difficult patterns in relationships. It is useful when people want to improve how they connect, respond to each other, and repair hurts. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and supporting a person where they are. This approach helps people feel heard and discover their own solutions through a warm, nonjudgmental stance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers concrete strategies to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be helpful for anxiety, depression, and stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lori treats the choice of methods as collaborative, adjusting techniques to match each person's goals, needs, and preferences. Sessions mix talking, skill practice, and small experiments to see what helps most.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video is good for full conversations and nonverbal cues. Phone can work when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter check-ins and steady support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and different time zones.
