How Lori Uses CBT Online and What to Expect
Lori primarily uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a hands-on approach that looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. CBT helps people spot unhelpful thinking, test new ideas, and build practical routines to reduce anxiety, manage mood, or change unhealthy habits.The choice of approach is collaborative. Lori will talk with each person about goals and daily life, then try methods that fit those needs. If something isn’t working, she adjusts the plan and tries different techniques together with the client.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be used for shorter check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing prompts or reflections between meetings. These options aim to increase flexibility so people can keep up with therapy despite busy schedules, travel, or work commitments.
