How Lori integrates therapy approaches for online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and making life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting patterns of thinking that reinforce distress and practicing new ways of responding. CBT often helps with depression, sleep issues, and anxiety. Emotionally-Focused Therapy, when used, centers on how emotions show up in relationships and can help people understand and change interaction patterns.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Lori listens to your goals and preferences, talks through what feels most useful, and adjusts methods as you go. She mixes techniques to fit your needs rather than sticking to a single method from the start.
