How mindfulness and practical therapies work online

Mindfulness Therapy encourages noticing present-moment experience without judgment. In practice this means short breathing or grounding exercises, pausing to track thoughts and sensations, and learning gentle ways to reduce reactivity. This approach can help with anxiety, stress, and emotional overwhelm.

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful therapeutic relationship. The therapist follows the person’s pace and priorities, helping them clarify values and goals and offering supportive reflection. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to distress and teaches specific tools to change those patterns, which can help with depression, anxiety, and coping with life changes.

Finding the right fit is part of therapy. Lori collaborates with each person to choose approaches that match their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they try methods, adjust what isn’t working, and focus on practical steps that feel doable.

The biography does not list which online formats are offered, so confirm current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments around work and family life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can use these sessions to teach mindfulness exercises, practice new coping skills, and track progress between meetings.

These summaries are based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp. Listing mindfulness as an approach does not mean a therapist holds a formal mindfulness training or certificate.
