I absolutely enjoy talking with Lori she has been my therapist for almost a year with some time off in-between due to financial issues... She has been with me through such difficult times in my life and has listened and showed me ways to cope. I have laughed and cried and learned so much about my self and still do with her there for me. I honestly don't believe I would be here today without her help.
More about Lori
- 13 years' experience
- Female
- LICSW, LCSW
I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in Minnesota and California with over 15 years experience working as a counselor and therapist. I have worked with individuals experiencing a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, substance use disorder, eating disorder, grief and loss, relationship issues, emotion management, stress, work/life balance, and trauma. My therapy style is empathic and accepting. My approach combines cognitive behavior, dialectical behavior, solution focused and relational-cultural therapy.
I believe that therapy is most effective when there is a therapeutic partnership that is genuine, compassionate, empathetic, and supportive of client choices. I respect and value the experiences in your life that contribute to you choosing therapy. Our work together will be based on your individual treatment plan goals with a focus on building skills to create changes in your life.
It takes courage and hope to reach out for help. I am honored to be part of your journey toward health and wellness!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Lori is a wonderful, empathetic, down-to-earth therapist. As someone that works in mental health myself, I feel validated and heard by her.
Meeting with Lori is one of the best parts of my week. She makes me feel heard, truly cared for, and encourages me to be better and reach my goals. I am so grateful this app matched us together!
Lori has significantly helped me deal with multiple things that have changed my life. I initially came here for help with anger and lack of purpose. I can’t even explain how Lori has helped me with identifying these things in me and working with it. She has opened my mind and made me a better man to everyone in my life. I hope everyone is lucky enough to have the experience I have and continue to have with Lori!
Lori makes me feel seen and heard. She validates my struggles, especially as someone that also works in the mental health field.
Lori makes me feel like I'm cared about while in our sessions. She listens and provides feedback and insight that I need at this time.
Lori made me feel extremely comfortable. She helped me get through mental road blocks that I needed to understand to understand my emotions better. Couldn’t ask for a better person and therapist to work with.
She’s wonderful very happy I got matched with her
